The Lambert projection (or, to be more precise, the Lambert Conformal Conic projection, but be advised that this complete name is rarely if ever used) is one of the most commonly used projections. As its full name implies, the Lambert projection is conformal, and thus it cannot be equivalent. 6, record 1, English, - Lambert%20conformal%20projection

Les méridiens géographiques sont représentés par des droites concourantes. Les parallèles sont représentés par une série d'arcs de cercles concentriques centrés sur le point de concours précédent et espacés de façon à assurer la conformité. Méridiens et parallèles sont donc orthogonaux. 7, record 1, French, - projection%20conique%20conforme%20de%20Lambert
