I am facing difficulty in remotely selecting a few equal-area projections to choose for my study area. Could you recommend an equal-area cylindrical projection that covers the extent of Southeast Asia (92.1892776489258949,-11.0097208023069015 : 141.0117645263674149,28.5432605743409908).

Thank you, your help is greatly honored. Hope I will hear from you soon.

Thanks, fixed it

As Antarctica is vastly larger in proportion to it’s actual size.
