    NHammerProjection Class
    In This Topic
    The Hammer projection is an equal-area map projection, described by Ernst Hammer in 1892.
    Object Model
    NHammerProjection Class
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    
    <System.Xml.Serialization.XmlIncludeAttribute(Nevron.Diagram.Maps.NAitoffProjection)>
    <System.SerializableAttribute()>
    Public Class NHammerProjection 
       Inherits NMapProjection
    'Usage
     
    
    Dim instance As NHammerProjection
    [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlInclude(Nevron.Diagram.Maps.NAitoffProjection)]
    [System.Serializable()]
    public class NHammerProjection : NMapProjection 
    Remarks
    Directly inspired by the Aitoff projection, Hammer suggested the use of the equatorial form of the Lambert azimuthal equal-area projection instead of Aitoff's use of the azimuthal equidistant projection. Visually, the Aitoff and Hammer projections are very similar but the Hammer has seen more use because of its equal-area property.
