stereographic-1.2.0

The stereographic projection.

Description

Corresponds to the STG projection in the FITS WCS standard.

See zenithal for the definition of the full transformation.

The pixel-to-sky transformation is defined as:

\[\theta = 90^{\circ} - 2 \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{\pi R_\theta}{360^{\circ}}\right)\]

And the sky-to-pixel transformation is defined as:

\[R_\theta = \frac{180^{\circ}}{\pi}\frac{2 \cos \theta}{1 + \sin \theta}\]

Invertibility: All ASDF tools are required to provide the inverse of this transform.
