Stereographic Projection

The site contains a JAVA applet that illustrates the Stereographic Projection map of the sphere to the plane. The applet allows the pattern on the sphere to be rotated so that the stretching of its projection on the plane can be examined. This site is a part of a large collection of materials related to geometry and scientific graphing.
