A while back, someone posted an algorithm to generate equally spaced points on the surface of a sphere. If anyone still has that algorithm, could you please post it again? Thanks in advance, Jim -- ______________________________________________________________________________ | In real life: James S.

An algorithm (and application) based on the cylindrical equal-area projection appears in the new _Graphics Gems_ (Academic Press) at the end of the piece on Digital Cartography. /Alan Paeth Computer Graphics Laboratory University of Waterloo
