Editing Dymaxion map (section)

== Conformal variant ==

In 2019, Daniel "daan" Strebe developed a [[conformal map projection|conformal]] icosahedral projection, similar to the conformal projections to an octahedron by [[Oscar S. Adams]] (1928) and to a tetrahedron by [[Laurence P. Lee]] (1965), all three using [[Dixon elliptic functions]]. A conformal map preserves angles and local shapes from the sphere at the expense of increasing the scale distortion near the vertices of the icosahedron.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.mapthematics.com/ProjectionsList.php?Projection=309 |title= Directory of Map Projections: dymaxion-like conformal |last= Strebe|first= Daniel|website= Mapthematics|publisher= Mapthematics LLC|access-date= 2022-06-19}}</ref>
