World Map Political | Meridian 0 Degrees Greenwich | Equal Earth Projection

This world map with the Greenwich Meridian at 0° longitude shows Europe, Africa, and the South Atlantic at its center, representing these regions cohesively and with relatively little distortion. This makes historical trade and transport relationships between Europe, Africa, and America clearly visible. For many users in Europe, it therefore offers a familiar and clear view of the world.
At the intersection of the equator and the prime meridian (0° N, 0° E) in the Atlantic Ocean lies the fictional Null Island. Until 2021, a measuring buoy from the "Prediction and Research Moored Array in the Tropical Atlantic (PIRATA)" project was anchored here. This project is part of the "Global Tropical Moored Buoy Array Program (GTMA)" and serves to provide real-time data for climate research and forecasting.
