polyconic projection
has glosseng: A polyconic projection is a map projection. The projection stems from "rolling" a cone tangent to the Earth at all parallels of latitude, instead of a single cone in a normal conic projection. Each parallel is a circular arc of true scale. The scale is also true on the central meridian of the projection. The projection was in common use by many map-making agencies of the United States from its proposal by Ferdinand Rudolph Hassler in 1825 until the middle of the 20th century.
