Abstract

Analysis and assessment of cartographic and geometric properties of the map: the back reconstruction of the map projection from the map content including the most probable constant values of the map projection. Constant values of the projection are the global optimizer, determined using the detectproj software.

Map contains a comparison of the old and current states, involving the reconstructed graticule. Based on the analysis, the map was assigned to the conic equal area projection.
