Tissot's indicatrix

Tissot's indicatrix is a way to characterize local distortions in a map projection (see the Wikipedia article).

It is traditionally constructed by differentiating the projection. However, we can implement a similar indicatrix in a more straightforward way, by simply projecting circles formed on the ellipsoidal Earth onto a map.

Here' we'll show how you can do this for a few projections.

julia
using Proj, GeoMakie, CairoMakie
import GeometryBasics: Point2d
import GeometryOps as GO

First, we define a function that gets a geodesic circle around some given point:

julia
function geodesic_circle(origin::PointType, radius::Real, npoints = 100; geodesic = Proj.geod_geodesic(6378137, 1/298.257223563)) where PointType <: Point2
    points = [PointType(Proj.geod_direct(geodesic, origin[2], origin[1], θ, radius)[[2, 1]]) for θ in LinRange(0, 360, npoints)]
    if points[end] != points[begin]
        points[end] = points[begin]
    end
    return points
end
poly(geodesic_circle(Point2f(0, 65), 100_000); axis = (; aspect = DataAspect()))

Note the curvature of the polygon - this is because it's the locus of points which are radius away from origin on the ellipsoidal Earth, not the flat Earth!

Now, we can create a proper Tissot map. Let's examine the Bertin 1953 projection.

julia
f, a, p = lines(GeoMakie.coastlines(); axis = (; type = GeoAxis, dest = "+proj=bertin1953"))
f

Now, we cn add the Tissot polygons:

julia
lons = LinRange(-180, 180, 13)
lats = LinRange(-90, 90, 7)
circle_polys = [GO.GI.Polygon([geodesic_circle(Point2d(lon, lat), 500_000, 50)]) for lon in lons, lat in lats] |> vec
