Stenvers projection is a type of map projection that is used primarily in cartography. It is a form of oblique projection that depicts the Earth's surface. In this projection, the view is taken from a specific point above the Earth's surface, typically at an angle, rather than directly overhead. This allows for a more realistic representation of certain regions, particularly for locations that lie on the sides of the planet.
