Snake Projection

Snake Projection is a method used in cartography to represent geographic areas in a way that minimizes distortion, typically for the purpose of creating maps that help visualize spatial relationships more accurately. The technique involves creating a map projection that distorts the areas of shapes (like continents and countries) less than traditional projections. The idea is to “snake” the shapes across the map surface to ensure that their relative sizes remain more consistent with their true sizes on the globe.
