zenithal-1.1.0

Base class of all zenithal (or azimuthal) projections.

Description

Zenithal projections are completely specified by defining the radius as a function of native latitude, \(R_\theta\).

The pixel-to-sky transformation is defined as:

\[\begin{split}\phi &= \arg(-y, x) \\ R_\theta &= \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}\end{split}\]

and the inverse (sky-to-pixel) is defined as:

\[\begin{split}x &= R_\theta \sin \phi \\ y &= R_\theta \cos \phi\end{split}\]
