A conic projection is a type of map projection that projects the Earth's surface onto a cone. It is often used for mapping regions that are primarily east - west in extent, such as the United States. The Mercator projection is a cylindrical projection that distorts the size of objects as the latitude increases. The image shown is a conic projection, which is a flat model.
