All images on map-projections.net may be used according to the terms of the CC BY-SA license mentioned above. Here’s a quick help on how to attribute the images. Mind that these are suggestions only, you may choose any other kind of attribution as long as it meets the terms of the license.
Images from outside sources
Images of authors other than myself are accompanied with the name of the author and the CC badge.
Additionally, there’s a link which leads to the original
source of the file. Please refer to the source to learn how to
attribute the image in question.
Images without an attribution
Whenever an image is shown without
mentioning the name of the author, it was generated by me (Tobias Jung).
For a proper attribution you can use the following text:
Projection Images
When you want to use one of the projection
images (which are not attributed to another author, see above)
you can you use an attribution as shown in the previous
section – this will always link to map-projections.net.
However, you can also use an attribution that will directly link to the image in question.
This works as follows:
- Go to the single view section and select the projection you want to use.
- In the following screen, you’ll see a line below the image which mentions the author of the image – click it.
- Now, the detailed license information for the image will be shown. Below that you’ll find attributions you can copy & paste.

About Me
My name is Tobias Jung, I was born in 1968 in Essen, Germany and maybe I’ write more about myself sometime soon.
There’s only one reason why I added this About Me section at all:
I’d like to stress that I’m not a cartographer!
I’ve got no formal training in cartography, and I don’t even grasp the basics
of the mathematic formulae that are needed for map projections.
I’m just a guy who’s interested in map projections, and that’s it.
So if you know a thing or two about map projections and feel that I’m talking nonsense somewhere, feel free
to drop me a line (see Feedback)!
I’ll try to fix, then.
