The '''Geographic Projection''' ({{j|ジオグラフィックシステム|Jiogurafikku Shisutemu|Geographic System}}) is a treasure in {{p2}}. It is the southern hemisphere of a {{w|globe}}; this being a representation of Earth suggests that [[PNF-404]] is Earth.
Retrieving the treasure unlocks the Survey Chart, part of the [[Exploration Kit]], which allows the Pikmin [[leader]]s to progress to the [[Perplexing Pool]] and, when the debt has been repaid, the [[Wistful Wild]]. This is because it contains data that holds coordinates that makes locating this new area possible. The [[Spherical Atlas]] is also a globe half, this time a northern hemisphere, and it too unlocks an area to land in (the [[Awakening Wood]]).


The name is a reference to {{w|geographic projection}}, a way of mapping a sphere's surface onto a flat plane.
The '''Geographic Projection''' is the southern hemisphere of a globe; this being a representation of Earth suggests that the [[Pikmin planet]] ''is'' Earth.  This heavy treasure is found in the [[Awakening Wood]], and requires [[Purple Pikmin]] to be picked up, due to the fact that its weight is 101 and thus 100 weaker [[Pikmin (species)|Pikmin]] cannot lift it. It is slightly buried and located near the longest constructible [[bridge]] in the area, behind a poison [[gate]] near the [[Hole of Beasts]]. A [[Creeping Chrysanthemum]] is nearby.

Retrieving the treasure unlocks the [[Survey Chart]], part of the [[Exploration Kit]], allowing the Pikmin [[captain]]s to progress to the [[Perplexing Pool]]. The [[Spherical Atlas]] is also a globe half, this time a northern hemisphere, and it too unlocks an area to land in (Awakening Wood).

The item is found in the same place as the [[Yellow Onion]] in [[Pikmin (game)|the first game]]. This heavy treasure is found in the [[Awakening Wood]], making it the only aboveground treasure that makes up the Explorer's Friend Series, and requires [[Purple Pikmin]] to be picked up, due to the fact that its weight is 101 and thus [[Pikmin limit|100]] weaker [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] cannot lift it. It is slightly buried and located near the longest constructible [[bridge]] in the area, behind a [[poison]] [[gate]] near the [[Hole of Beasts]]. A [[Creeping Chrysanthemum]] is nearby.

==Model and texture==
{{see also|Spherical Atlas#Model and texture}}
 
Just like the Spherical Atlas, the Geographic Projection varies in apperance by [[region]]. In the North American and Japanese versions, the "front" of the globe is South America. In the European version, it shows Oceania, as the version of ''Pikmin 2'' distributed in Oceania is the European one. In {{p2s}}, since it uses the North American version internationally, the Geographic Projection always appears South America front.
 
[[File:Geographic Projection region differences.jpg|thumb|center|400px|The treasure as seen in the [[Treasure Hoard]], in the Japanese/North American versions, and European version of the game, respectively. The camera was not moved since opening the Treasure Hoard entries.]]
 
Notably, the texture for the Geographic Projection is mirrored vertically, rather than rotated 180 degrees. This means that the landmasses appear backwards, and it's not possible to align the two treasures into a complete globe, as the texture for the Spherical Atlas is not mirrored.
 
The Geographic Projection's [[Treasure Hoard]] icon is the same across all versions of ''Pikmin 2'', and depicts South America, like the Japanese and American reigonal versions. The texture used to produce the Geographic Projection's highlight is called <code>hilight_I4_bombsarai</code>, and is shared with the Spherical Atlas and [[Careening Dirigibug]].

{{transcript|The interior of this hemisphere contains a chip coded with charts detailing a new region. I explored this forest the last time I was here, but it's clear that it has undergone some dramatic changes. The plants and animals have also evolved significantly. I've given this forest a new name...the Awakening Wood. I must begin to form a hypothesis to explain why the forest changed so rapidly.|block=y}}
