This projection is a Mollweide Equal-Area projection of the world.
This map is for definition purposes to help introduce the types of map
projections to those interested. It has simple labels of the meridians and the parallels at 30 degree intervals. IT uses the two shades to depict land and water. It is a cylindrical projection with straight parallels
and arced parallels. It is typically used to show world maps. The meridians are
equally spaced apart. The scale is true along the 40.44 degree north
parallel and 40.44 S parallel which are the standard parallels. This projection shows equal area throughout the map.
