dears, I know that Projected coordinate system are categories based on preserved spatial value (Conformal, area, Distance, direction, Gnomonic, and Compromise).

but I want a guide which tell me which PCS is under the conformal categories, or Distance conformal categories.

in another word a group of PCS (ex; UTM, Cassini, Cape UTM) are all under the Conformal categories so they preserve the shape.

where i can know this info!
