Martin Desruisseaux created SIS-466: ---------------------------------------
Summary: Gnomonic projection Key: SIS-466 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-466 Project: Spatial Information Systems Issue Type: Sub-task Components: Referencing Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux Implement the Gnomonic projection, where geodesics are straight lines. Formulas for the sphere are given in Snyder. Formulas for the ellipsoid are impossible, but Charles F. F. Karney in [Algorithms for geodesics (SRI International)|https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007%2Fs00190-012-0578-z.pdf] gives a form where straight lines are very close to geodesics. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
