This is a dome. The area above is the projected surface, worked out from the diameter by convention rather than measured — and it wraps above and behind you, so it isn't the same thing as the frontal area of a flat screen. Treat the score as a rough peer of the flat screens around it, not a like-for-like comparison.
Why IQ 70
23 m dome, scored on projected surface · full marks at 700 m² · one source
IMAX 15/70mm Film · recorded 2021 · one source
a dome has no frame aspect ratio, so this axis does not apply
no sound specification published
