The sphere and the plane are geodesically equivalent; symplectically equivalent (This refers to area in dim 2); conformally equivalent. They are not metrically equivalent. Have Gaussian curvature κ that is intrinsic and invariant under isometries ( Theorema Egregium ). A cylinder is metrically equivalent to the plane (also geodesically, symplectically, conformally), i.e. one has ideal maps for a cylinder. Higher dim? Different structures? Differential geometry!
