Learn more about the map styles
Each map type offers different information and each map style is designed for a different purpose. Read about the styles and map projection used in the above map (Gray Map of Alabama).
Gray coloured map
The grey colored map. Alabama is highlighted in white. This color scheme is similar to silver styled maps, but compared to the latter, a darker shade of gray is used.
This map is enhanced with hill-shading. Hillshading creates a three-dimensional effect that provides a sense of the landscape relief even on a flat map image. Shadows drawn on a map simulate the effect of sunlight over the surface of the land.
Geographic map projection
A map projection is a way how to transform points on a Earth to points on a map. This map of Alabama uses Plate Carree projection. The Plate Carree projection is a simple cylindrical projection originated in the ancient times. It has straight and equally spaced meridians and parallels that meet at right angles.
All projections from a sphere to a plane are distorted. The drawback of the Plate Carree projection is that it doesn't make an attempt to compensate for these distortions. For the general view of Alabama, this is not a significant problem. The detailed maps use the Mercator projection which preserves the shape of small areas better.
