A Study on the Comparision Between Map Projection Methods of TM and Polyhedric

Much information on the terrain and the space has been depicted to maps of various form according to the map scale and the application. In Korea the base map system was made by only one projection method(Transvers Mercator projection). This is the reason to study this paper, because I think singular map projection method can't satisfy the various map scales and application. In this paper Meridian Are Length, Parallel Are Length of ellipsoid and the area of ellipsoidal surface-the length, the width and area of the map scale 1/5,000, 1/25,000, 1/5,000, 1/1,000, will be calculated and transformed to the plane length and area by Transvers Mercartor projection and Polyhedrical projection. The projection distortion which came into existence on this occasion was compared and analyzed by this Paper. And Properties on TM and Polyhedrical projection were understood. Lastly this paper intended to present suitable map projections according to the map scales and the purpose of use.
