corrected projections: Is this world map realistic? I tried to use plate tectonics to inform my mountain and island chain placements
1 degree of latitude = 96.57 km.
Equirectangular projections. (Yes, I need to revise the polar regions to make sure they don't get squished.)
Obliquity of Jasmi: +31.1 degrees.
Radius of Jasmi: 0.87 REarth
Marked (too vaguely, I know,) are the equator, 31.1 degrees, 40 degrees and 58.9 degrees (my tropical and polar circles, as well as my subtropic/temperate regions).
Disregard the colors on the top map if you like; in a previous iteration of my planet's flora evolutionary timeline, I made this map to highlight diverse species of algae blooms around my continents.
Lighter color = higher elevation in the second map
Thanks! <3 R
