Abstract
The Equidistant Cylindric and the Equidistant Conic projections are reviewed as foundations for a series of new projections. The new projections are introduced as the Patchwork Conic, an amalgamation of Equidistant Conic projections; the Generalized Equidistant Cylindric, with a standard path, or conformal path of correct scale, that is definable by the projection designer; and the Generalized Equidistant Conic, having two definable standard paths. Several potential uses are mentioned. Maps, formulae, and computation examples are provided. It is concluded that the projection is unique in allowing tailoring without compromising desirable mathematical properties.
