Dymaxion Airocean World:
"I made a chart using the vector equilibrium. I found it possible to see our world, all the data of the Earth's surface at once, only a quarter of the Earth's surface being dry land. This is simply a point set transformation from the spherical to the planar. It does a very nice job. You cannot detect any visual distortion in the relative shape or size of these components. We were able to do it in such a way that the sinuses all occur in the ocean, so you have one world island and one world ocean."
