Cartography: General Theory Of The Lambert Conformal Conic Projection

Cartography: General Theory of the Lambert Conformal Conic Projection, by the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey and Oscar Sherman Adams, delves into the mathematical principles underpinning the creation of accurate and reliable maps. This comprehensive work explores the intricacies of the Lambert conformal conic projection, a fundamental technique in cartography for representing portions of the Earth's surface on a flat plane.

The book offers a detailed examination of the mathematical formulas and geometric concepts necessary to understand and implement this projection method. It is an invaluable resource for surveyors, cartographers, and anyone involved in the creation or interpretation of maps, providing insights into the theoretical foundations that ensure the precision and utility of geographic representations.
