Map projections: conical projections ... The equidistant (also called simple) conic projection has constant parallel spacement, thus scale is the same along all meridians. Commonly one or two parallels are chosen to have the same scale, suffering from no distortion.

Everything you always wanted to know about map projections, and then some. ... A conic projection that distorts scale and distance except along standard parallels. Areas are proportional and directions are true in limited areas. Used in the United States and other large countries with a larger east-west than north-south extent.
