Answer 2

Can you define those terms?

Answer 3

Gall-Peters/Equal-area (or equivalent) projections: maps that maintain area but distort other properties.
The Mercator/Conformal (or orthomorphic) projections: maps that maintain shape but distort other properties (it is impossible to have a projection that is both conformal and equal area).
Azimuthal projections: maps that maintain direction but distort other properties.
Equidistant projections: maps that maintain distance but distort other properties.
Robinson projections: Compromise projections neither equal in area nor conformal. Slightly distorted, not drastically one distorted.
