Details

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. WuGeo is a Python library used to draw points on geographical maps, starting from latitude and longitude. It borns from the desire to track site visitors, then becomes an abstract library, being a scientific generic tool. In particular, WuGeo has to be used with world maps created with the Miller cylindrical projection, that is a modified Mercator projection. The Mercator projection is a cylindrical map projection presented by the Flemish geographer and cartographer Gerardus Mercator, in 1569. It became the standard map projection for nautical purposes because of its ability to represent lines of constant course, known as rhumb lines or loxodromes, as straight segments. While the linear scale is constant in all directions around any point, thus preserving the angles and the shapes of small objects (which makes the projection conformal), the Mercator projection distorts the size and shape of large objects, as the scale increases from the Equator to the poles, where it becomes infinite.
