The Azimuthal Equal Area (Polar Aspect) projection is an equal-area projection with the azimuthal property showing true directions from the center of the projection. Its scale at a given distance from the center varies less from the scale at the center than the scale of any of the other azimuthal projections. All meridians in the polar aspect are straight lines.
