Goode homolosine projection information


Goode homolosine projection of the world.
Tissot indicatrix on Goode homolosine projection, 15° graticule.

The Goode homolosine projection (or interrupted Goode homolosine projection) is a pseudocylindrical, equal-area, composite map projection used for world maps. Normally it is presented with multiple interruptions. Its equal-area property makes it useful for presenting spatial distribution of phenomena.
