ArcGIS suite of software categorises coordinate systems as either geographic or projected. From what I understand about coordinate systems (and I may be wrong), geographic co-ordinate systems are used to display features on a globe and projected co-ordinate systems are used to display features on a 2D plane.
How is it that when I use a GCS like WGS_1984 to display a layer of the entire earth, ArcMap shows it to me on a 2D plane? Doesn't that mean that the feature was projected.
