Summary/Abstract: Based on the theories of Ptolemy emerge so far and Romania various systems cartographic projections: Stereographic 1930, Stereographic 1970 or Universal Transverse Mercator, which are used today. Each of these cartographic projection systems presents both advantages and disadvantages. Analyzing the deformations in the main cartographic projections in our country, using a generic program of transformation of geospatial coordinates from one CRS to another, we can obtain visually appropriate interpretations and make statistics, with the possibility of the percentage, the advantages of using one or the other.Based on the above-mentioned criterion, the scientific paper aims to present the implications from the point of view of the linear deformations, which each of these projections generates, as well as a comparative analysis between them, more suggestively, the advantages of cartographic representation in each case.
