The Hammer projection of the ellipsoid of revolution (azimuthal, transverse, rescaled equiareal)
Abstract. The classical Hammer projection of the sphere, which is azimuthal transverse rescaled equiareal, is generalized to the ellipsoid of revolution. Its first constituent, the azimuthal transverse equiareal projection of the biaxial ellipsoid, is derived giving equations for an equiareal transverse azimuthal projection. The second constituent, the equiareal mapping of the biaxial ellipsoid with respect to a transverse frame of reference and a change of scale, is then considered; results give collections of the general mapping equations generating the ellipsoidal Hammer projection, which lead to a world map.
