The simple cylindrical projection is one of the earliest and most basic types of map projections used in cartography. It is developed by projecting the features of the Earth’s spherical surface onto a cylinder that is wrapped around the globe. In this projection, the cylinder is assumed to touch the Earth along the equator, which serves as the line of tangency. After projecting the graticules of latitude and longitude onto the cylindrical surface, the cylinder is unrolled to produce a flat rectangular map. This method converts the curved surface of the Earth into a plane while maintaining a systematic arrangement of meridians and parallels. One of the fundamental properties of the simple cylindrical projection is that all meridians are represented as straight, parallel, and equally spaced vertical lines. They intersect the parallels at right angles, forming a rectangular grid. Similarly, all parallels of latitude are shown as straight horizontal lines. The spacing between parallels is uniform throughout
