Abstract: Presenting of Earth area in the plane is always followed with deformation of angles, lengths and areas. Attempting to find cartographic projection for successful minimizing deformation of basic elements was occupation of many cartographers in the past. In this group, the most important is French cartographer M. A. Tissot. In this work are presented basic characteristic and formulas of Tissot compensation projection. This projection have characteristic for minimizing deformation of angles and lengths, and also have wide usage in cartography especially in the field of states cartographic projection. In common with basic characteristic of projection, in this paper are presented the aspects of use of Tissot compensation projection in the mapping of territory of Republic of Macedonia.
