Abstract
In this study the problem of finding the conformal mapping from a sphere onto a plane with a given scale function independent of longitude is solved for an arbitrary spherical domain. The obtained results are compared with the well-known projections used in cartography and geophysical fluid dynamics. The problem of minimization of the distortion under conformal mappings is solved for domains in the form of the spherical disk. The distortions of some extensively used conformal mappings are compared with the distortions of orthogonal mappings.
