In [[cartography]], the '''cylindrical equal-area projection''' is a family of [[Map projections#Cylindrical|cylindrical]], [[Map projection#Equal-area|equal area]] [[map projection]]s.
 
==Cylindrical projections==
{{Main|Map_projection#Cylindrical|l1=Cylindrical map projection}}
The term "normal cylindrical projection" is used to refer to any projection in which [[Meridian (geography)|meridians]] are mapped to equally spaced vertical lines and [[circles of latitude]] (parallels) are mapped to horizontal lines (or, [[mutatis mutandis]], more generally, radial lines from a fixed point are mapped to equally spaced parallel lines and concentric circles around it are mapped to perpendicular lines).
 
The mapping of meridians to vertical lines can be visualized by imagining a cylinder (of which the axis coincides with the Earth's axis of rotation) wrapped around the Earth and then projecting onto the cylinder, and subsequently unfolding the cylinder.
 
By the geometry of their construction, cylindrical projections stretch distances east-west. The amount of stretch is the same at any chosen latitude on all cylindrical projections, and is given by the [[Trigonometric function|secant]] of the [[latitude]] as a multiple of the equator's scale. The various cylindrical projections are distinguished from each other solely by their north-south stretching (where latitude is given by&nbsp;φ):
 
The only cylindrical projections that preserve area have a
* North-south compression precisely the reciprocal of east-west stretching (cosine φ): equal-area cylindrical (with many named specializations such as [[Gall–Peters projection|Gall–Peters]] or Gall orthographic, [[Behrmann projection|Behrmann]], and [[Lambert cylindrical equal-area projection|Lambert cylindrical equal-area]]). This divides north-south distances by a factor equal to the secant of the latitude, preserving area but heavily distorting shapes.
 
Any particular cylindrical equal-area map has a pair of identical latitudes of opposite sign (or else the equator) at which the east-west scale matches the north-south-scale.
 
==Description==
===Formulae===
All cylindrical equal-area projections use the formula:
 
:<math>x = ( \lambda - \lambda_0 ) \cos \phi_0\,</math>
:<math>y = \sin \phi / \cos \phi_0\,</math>
 
where <math>\lambda\,</math> is the longitude, <math>\lambda_0\,</math> is the central meridian, <math>\phi\,</math> is the latitude,  and <math>\phi_0\,</math> is the standard latitude,<ref>[http://pubs.er.usgs.gov/usgspubs/pp/pp1395 ''Map Projections - A Working Manual''], [[United States Geological Survey|USGS]] Professional Paper 1395, John P. Snyder, 1987, pp.76–85</ref> all expressed in radians.
 
Some cartographers prefer to work in degrees, rather than radians, and use the equivalent formula:
:<math>x = ( \lambda - \lambda_0 ) (\cos \phi_0) \pi / 180^\circ</math>
:<math>y = \sin \phi / \cos \phi_0\,</math>
 
===Simplified formula===
Stripping out unit conversion and uniform scaling, the formulae may be written:
 
:<math>x = ( \lambda - \lambda_0 ) S\,</math>
 
:<math>y = \sin\phi\,</math>
 
Hence the sphere is mapped onto a stretched vertical cylinder. The stretch factor S is what distinguishes the variations of cylindric equal-area projection.
 
===Discussion===
The various specializations of the cylindric equal-area projection differ only in the ratio of the vertical to horizontal axis. This ratio determines the ''standard parallel'' of the projection, which is the parallel at which there is no distortion and along which distances match the stated scale. There are always two standard parallels on the cylindric equal-area projection, each at the same distance north and south of the equator. The standard parallels of the Gall–Peters are 45°&nbsp;N and 45°&nbsp;S. Several other specializations of the equal-area cylindric have been described, promoted, or otherwise named.<ref name="Snyder2">Snyder, John P. (1989). ''An Album of Map Projections'' p. 19.
