Lambert equal-area conic projection

The Lambert equal-area conic projection (named after Johann Heinrich Lambert), is a conic, equal area map projection that represents one pole as a point. Albers projection is a generalization of this projection with two standard parallel.[1] Lambert equal-area conic projection can be viewed as an extreme case of Albers projection or Lambert azimuthal equal-area projection.
