Isometric projection is a type of single view projection in which a pictorial view is
obtained by keeping the object in such a way that all the three mutually perpendicular
geometrical axes are equally inclined to the plane of projection. The projectors follow the
rules of multi-view projections i.e. they are parallel to each other and perpendicular to
the plane of projection.
In multi-view orthographic projections, each view provides information of two axes
(length & breadth or length & height or breadth & height). For a complete understanding,
there is always a need of more than one view of the object. These views can only be
correctly interpreted and visualized by those persons who have a good knowledge of
principles used for these projections. Whereas in isometric projection, a single view is
drawn in such a manner that it gives an overall view of the object at the first sight. Thus,
it is necessary to draw a pictorial view of one kind or the other so as to enable a
common man to understand.
