Excellent Presentation About Map Making Problems and Different Methods Used to Flatten the Globe. Why All World Maps are Wrong

I never studied map making much in my life and it must have been 20+ years ago that I took a college course about map making and the many complex problems that map makers face. Nothing has changed in hundreds of years as far as these problems are concerned. This video does an outstanding job of explaining this and makes it interesting for people to watch. A Cartographer is a person who creates maps.
This is a good introduction to map making for people all over the world to watch.
Most people just look at maps and never think about them the same way a Cartographer does.
