What is the difference between Mercator projections, Equal Area Projections and Winkel Tripel Projections.
d'Aiguillon is given credit for naming the Azimuthal map in 1613. However, its origin can be traced back to Greek Hipparchus in the 2nd century BC.

What is the difference between Mercator projections, Equal Area Projections and Winkel Tripel Projections.
the mercator projection lines are straight but the robinsons are curved
the difference between mercator projection and equal projection is 250km apart from each other
Equal-Area maps are more of the true shape, and mercator distorts it more
Discounting the Mercator, which cartographers tend to HATE but is ubiquitous anyway... Probably the Lambert Conformal Conic projection, or the Lambert Azimuthal Equal-Area projection (used by the US National Atlas).
When calculating a bearing, azimuthal notation refers to the angle of the bearing from North, measured clockwise. Quadrant notation takes the bearing from north or south with a change to west or east. For example, Quadrant notation: SE = Azimuth notation of 135 degrees.
On a Mercator map it is a straight line.
A Mercator projection map is the most familiar and common to usage in primary education systems. Mercator projections model the continents and oceans into a flattened and rolled cylindrical format. In comparison a Gnomonic projection is also two dimensional and flat but it uses lines which are actual representation of point-to-point s indicating true distance. Another significant difference is scale as Mercator's can represent the entire earth whereas Gnomonics represent a geographical limited area. Lastly Mercator's have the difference of distortion and under representing the actual sizes of Greenland and Continental Africa.
Google Maps uses WGS-84 Web Mercator which is a slight variation of the Mercator projection.Google Earth uses Simple Cylindrical (Plate Carree) projection with a WGS84 datum for its imagery base.
Geardus Mercator invented the Mercator Map in 1569
