The Winkel Tripel projection, presented by Oswald Winkel in
1921, is a modified azimuthal projection that is neither
conformal nor equal-area.  Central meridian and equator are
straight lines; other parallels and meridians are curved.
The projection is obtained by averaging the coordinates of
the Equidistant Cylindrical and Aitoff (not Hammer-Aitoff)
projections.  The poles map into straight lines 0.4 times
the length of equator.  To use it you must enter
