Geological Atlas of the Moon
Projection:
Mercator and Lambert Conformal Conic
The Geological
Atlas of the Moon covers much of the Moon's near side. Its 44 highly
detailed charts cover the same areas as the topographic maps in the
Lunar Astronautical Chart series.
The charts are
constructed on a Mercator projection (true scale at 11°
00'45") for charts in bands 0° to 16°N and 0° to
16°S; and, on a Lambert conformal conic projection in the
following bands:
16°N-S to
32°N-S (standard parallels 21°20' and 42°40')
32° N-S to
48°N-S (standard parallels 21°20' and 42°40')
48°N-S to
80°N-S (standard parallels 53°20' and 74°40')
Feature names were
taken from the International Astronomical Union nomenclature system.
