Learn more about the map styles
Each map type offers different information and each map style is designed for a different purpose. Read about the styles and map projection used in the above map (Gray Location Map of Amman).
Gray coloured map
The grey colored map. Amman is highlighted in white. This color scheme is similar to silver styled maps, but compared to the latter, a darker shade of gray is used.
This map is enhanced with hill-shading. Hillshading creates a three-dimensional effect that provides a sense of the landscape relief even on a flat map image. Shadows drawn on a map simulate the effect of sunlight over the surface of the land.
Map projection of the location map
The location map of Amman combines two projections: the orthographic azimuthal projection for the globe and the simple geographic projection for the rectangular part of the map. Geographic projection has straight meridians and parallels, each degree of latitude and longitude is the same size over the entire world map.
The orthographic azimuthal projection is a perspective projection from infinite distance. It was already known to the Egyptians and Greeks more than 2,000 years ago. It gives the appearance of the Earth viewed from outer space. Only one hemisphere can be viewed at a time. The globe centered on Amman appears more realistic than almost any other projection.
