Summer services update
The Darwin Glacier Lambert Conformal 2000 (DGLC2000) projection was developed to support topographic mapping in and around the Darwin Glacier. It was developed in 2008 but was never published.
DGLC2000 would have resulted in large distortions over Ross Island so it was replaced by McMurdo Sound Lambert Conformal 2000 projection (MSLC2000) in March 2011.
More information about the cancellation of this standard is available in the document Background to Ross Sea Region projections:
