Equirectangular?[edit]

As EPSG4326 was used, this map is not equirectangular.Hence when it is used as Pushpin map, distorted placement was observed. In QGIS, there is no standard way to specify equirectangular projection, which seems to be common in ArcInfo like tool. Some more expertise or use of ArcInfo is needed to fix the error. For smaller regions like Telangana, EPSG4326 worked out well, but for large regions like Andhra Pradesh, distortion is noticeable. Note to self to remember the status.--Arjunaraoc (talk) 05:54, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
