Projection Studio (Level 3)
Redraw select layers in a public ArcGIS Online web map, with a new map projection. To learn more about projection basics or projection distortion, visit those apps.
1Choose a web map
Paste a link to a web map that's shared with everyone. Map Viewer links, item page links and 32-character item IDs all work.

2What can be projected
Data layers can be redrawn in any projection. Tiled layers can't, because their pictures were made ahead of time in one projection.
| Layer | Type | In this projection | Why |

How to get a client ID
In ArcGIS Online, go to Content, choose New item, then Developer credentials and OAuth credentials. Add this page's address as a redirect URL:
Copy the client ID it gives you into the box above. Whoever hosts this page can also put it in the page's CLIENT_ID setting so nobody has to enter it.
New web map
Always a new map. Saving creates a new item every time. It never changes the original web map or any map you already have. New maps are private until you share them.
