MillerCylindricalProjection.Compromise Property
Gets the number that controls how Miller is blended from Mercator and Equidistant Cylindrical.
Syntax
public System.Double Compromise { get; }Property Value
Default: 0.8
A dimensionless number between 0 and 1, controlling the blend of Mercator and Equidistant Cylindrical.
Remarks
The Miller cylindrical projection is a compromise between two simpler cylindrical projections: Mercator and Equidistant Cylindrical. The compromise parameter - a dimensionless real number between 0 and 1 - determines how the two simple ones should be blended.
A compromise of 0 makes Miller behave just like the Equidistant Cylindrical. A compromise of 1 makes Miller behave just like the Mercator. The default value of 0.8 was preferred by O. M. Miller, and this choice is the one that is usually called the "Miller cylindrical". However, the libproj4 library of Gerald Evenden provides both the value 0.8, used for +proj=mill, and the value 2/3, used for +proj=mill_2.
