Loximuthal Projection

The Loximuthal projection, is a pseudo cylindrical projection created by Karl Siemon. All parallels are straight lines, and all meridians are equally spaced arcs except the central meridian, which is a straight line. The poles are points. The Loximuthal projection is often used for displaying loxodromes.
