I have searched the web for awhile trying to find the projection methods (for example, Hammer, Miller1, Albers, etc) used for traditional sas map datasets. Specifically, I am looking for the projection methods used for the X/Y variables of mapssas.uscenter and mapssas.us. I was hoping to find a table or document of the projections used for the various sas map datasets. Any help provided would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

mapssas.us and mapssas.uscenter were created a very long time ago, and from what I have heard, I believe the x/y coordinates were created as-is, rather than starting with unprojected coordinates and projecting them.

Thank you. I like the way the map mapssas.us is displayed when using proc gmap (Alaska, Puerto Rico, and Hawaii all at the bottom). Since the X/Y coordinates are already projected, it may be difficult to use an annotate data set to plot points on top of this map ( I believe i would need to project the long/lat coordinates in the same way the x/y coordinates were projected for the mapssas.us in order for the plots to be properly aligned).

Is there another sas map data set you would recommend using or a specific projection method you would use in order to get a similar output map?

I have used code (can't recall where I found it) to move AK, HI, and PR to the bottom, but I prefer not to do this if I don't have to. Any advice you could provide would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Hmm ... I guess I need to correct myself, which happens occasionally Smiley Happy

I did some more checking, and in modern times (v6, v8, and newer) we did start projecting maps.us and maps.uscenter from lat/long coordinates. Here is the code that was used, and you should be able to re-use this code to created custom maps (with the US projected, and Alaska & Hawaii moved and re-sized similarly)...

Thanks for your help. I will try using the code in the link provided to get the correct projection for my annotate datasets!

You really should be using MAPSGFK instead of MAPSSAS.  MAPSSAS is not changing.  It will eventually stop shipping.


MAPSGFK is different than MAPSSAS in some ways.  It is more consistant between maps.
The paper explaining the differences is: http://support.sas.com/rnd/papers/sasgf13/GfKMaps2013.pdf
(If this doesn't work, go to: http://support.sas.com/rnd/papers/sasgf13/GfKMaps2013.pdf and then look for the paper "Tips and Tricks: Using the new SAS Map data sets").

You can use use the MAPSGFK.PROJPARM data set to project your annotate data on a map that is already projected (See example 6C in the above documentation).
And you can chang your map with the insets like you had in MAPSSAS with the following program (It will soon be on MapsOnLine):
