This scale is more accurate the smaller the surface observed. In this world map, certain separated meridians are observed to achieve the crushed effect of the sphere. the best reproduction of the world map is done on a sphere .. evolution of the technology for the elaboration of the world map: the old maps were designed based on annotations of observers and navigators that bordered the coasts with their ships and with the help of the position of the Sun and the stars were taking notes to represent the coasts rudimentarily. It is obvious that the first world maps were very elementary, inaccurate and inaccurate. the invention of the compas* made it possible to improve these observations and improve the accuracy of the world maps.
