The Modified Transverse Mercator (MTM) is a variation of the Transverse Mercator projection, optimized for mapping smaller areas with increased accuracy. This projection is particularly suitable for regions that have a significant east-west extent, offering reduced distortion in both distance and shape compared to standard Transverse Mercator.
