(LONDON INDEPENDENT) Japanese architect Hajime Narukawa claims to have tackled a centuries-old problem – how to draw an oblate spheroid Earth on a flat plane.
He claims the above map, called the AuthaGraph World Map, achieves this task.
The projection, first created in 1999, frames the world’s physical components in a 2D rectangle, attempting to represent their relative sizes as accurately as possible.
