Azimuthal equidistant projection

Description

Azimuthal equidistant projection

Usage

azimuthal.equidistant(r, ...)

Arguments

r	2-column Matrix of spherical coordinates of points on sphere. Column names are phi and lambda.
...	Arguments not used by this projection.

Value

2-column Matrix of Cartesian coordinates of points on polar projection. Column names should be x and y.

Note

This is a special case with the point centred on the projection being the South Pole. The MathWorld equations are for the more general case.
