  This research work aims to explore the distortions in distance in equidistant
cylindrical projection. The horizontal bending that occurs in the projection
process can be assessed by performing a geometric analysis using Tissot's
indicatrices. In addition, the concept of the spherical coordinates, alongside
with trigonometrical identities, can be used to illustrate the route from a
point to another as a curve. With a combination of the knowledge extracted from
the examination of the projection using those two theories, this research aims
to fully unravel the degree of distortion in distance in equidistant
cylindrical projections.
