hi Rob

I did 2 steps:

- I added a white band at the bottom to rebuild the whole Miller projection.
I placed side by side a Miller map (from wikipedia) with the time-zone map, 
aligning them at the top. Then I vertical resized the time-zone map, from the 
bottom, to get the corrispondence of the continents on the same horizontal 
lines. I used Corel Draw for this action.

- I have a sw to convert an equirectangular map to many other kind of 
projections, may be you know G projector 
(http://www.giss.nasa.gov/tools/gprojector/).
This sw doesn’t allow the back conversion so I found ReprojectImage 1.0 to do 
this action, I don’t remember the website but it is free and if you wish I can 
send it to you or anyone who is interested (793 KB).

ciao Fabio

Hi,

 

What kind of software did you use for converting the Miller cylindrical 
projection into an equirectangular projection? 

 

I would like to do similar things with other maps.
