Werner projection

The Werner projection is a pseudoconic equal-area map projection. This cordiform (heart-shaped) projection originated in the 16th century. It is a limiting form of the Bonne projection. Distances along each parallel and along the central meridian are correct, as are all distances from the North Pole.
