Maps and sinusoidal projections

Hey everyone,

Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but I've been doing some googling around trying to find an answer and haven't found anything (though I may not know the proper search terms to use.) Basically, I have a rectangular projection of a world map that I want to convert to a sinusoidal map. I looked around for plugins that could do this, as well as other programs, but couldn't find anything useful.

I'm fairly new to the GIMP, so I may very well just be missing something. I'd be willing to take a stab at writing a plugin if one doesn't already exist.

Thanks :)

James

You could script this in the GIMP mathmap plugin:

Alternatively hugin can convert from equirectangular to sinusoidal projection:
