Hello,
We are using the Leaflet module in Drupal 10 to render interactive maps. As part of our project requirements, we need to modify the map projection so that:
The Southern Hemisphere appears proportionally larger, and the Northern Hemisphere is less emphasized.
The map should not use the standard Mercator projection, as it distorts the view and makes the Northern Hemisphere look too large.
The equator should ideally be centered, aligning with standards suggested in the UN Geospatial Hub.
We have a reference map (shared in the attached image) that better reflects our desired output, where:
The focus is on Southern Hemisphere countries.
Small island nations are also better represented without being overly distorted.
Our questions:
Is it possible to customize or override the default Leaflet projection (used in the Drupal integration)?
If not natively supported by the Drupal Leaflet module, can you guide us on how to implement such a projection using external Leaflet plugins like Proj4Leaflet?
Are there any known limitations or examples within the Drupal Leaflet ecosystem for such use cases?
