摘要
Using educational animations is a very effective way of conveying the knowledge and increasing the understanding in a lecture. Teaching and learning of map projections are among the most difficult topics in the education of Geomatics Engineering for both lecturers and students. In this article, it is aimed to visualize the mapping projections with educational animations developed with Matlab Mapping toolbox to provide better understanding of students in the Geomatics Engineering.
