Exam EAPA_2025 Topic 4 Question 20 Discussion

Actual exam question for Esri's EAPA_2025 exam
Question #: 20
Topic #: 4
A GIS analyst is performing spatial analysis of an area in the mid-latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere. The analysis must maintain area measurements that are as true as possible for the results.
In ArcGIS Pro, what map projection should the analyst choose to ensure the most accurate representation of the results?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

Albers Equal Area projection is specifically designed to minimize area distortion, making it ideal for analyses where accurate area measurements are required, particularly for mid-latitude regions.
* Mercator (Option A) preserves angles but severely distorts area.
* Lambert Conformal Conic (Option B) preserves shape but not area.
* Albers (Option C) preserves area, which is the requirement for this analysis.
Therefore, the correct answer is C.
