The Lambert Conformal Conic projection is a map projection used for representing regions of the Earth, particularly useful for mid-latitude areas. It preserves angles, making it ideal for navigation and aeronautical charts, as it allows for accurate representation of shapes. This projection is defined by two standard parallels, where the scale is true. Between these parallels, the projection maintains a consistent scale, while distortion increases outside of them. The Lambert Conformal Conic is widely used in various applications, including topographic maps and weather forecasting.
