Hi all,
Aaaahh projections. Something of a sticky subject to most.
I'm looking for a projection to use to represent an area, roughly 800 to a
1000km. I was thinking of something like Albers or Lambert. They need to
get good area representation with this projection. The current datum is WGS
84 and they're using Transverse Mercator, which I know is wrong as it
squashes the data.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
ciao
