Using Areal-Scale as Opposed to the Linear-Scale for Map Applications

Maps are made to scale. Scale represents the ratio of distance on the map to distance on a projected coordinate system, i.e., Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM). This specification is, however, limited by the fact that different lines produce different scales. This often has disadvantages for users...
