Andrae
Definition
A surname of Germanic origin, frequently found in Central and Northern Europe, borne by prominent figures in history, science, and theology (such as the Danish mathematician and statesman Carl Christoffer Georg Andræ). In cartography and geodesy, the name is structurally recognized through the 'Andrae projection', an early mathematical method for conformal map representation used in state topographic networks.
