Parameters

Note

All parameters for the projection are optional.

+lon_0=<value>

Longitude of projection center.

Defaults to 0.0.

+R=<value>

Radius of the sphere given in meters. If used in conjunction with +ellps +R takes precedence.

+x_0=<value>

False easting.

Defaults to 0.0.

+y_0=<value>

False northing.

Defaults to 0.0.

Mathematical Definition

Forward

\[ \begin{align}\begin{aligned}x &= 0.85\lambda \cos \theta\\y &= C_y \sin \theta\\P(\theta) &= 2\theta + \sin 2\theta - C_p \sin \phi\\P'(\theta) &= 2(1 + \cos 2\theta)\\\theta_0 &= 2\phi\end{aligned}\end{align} \]
Condition \(C_y\) \(C_p\)
For \(\phi > 0\) 1.75859 2.67595
For \(\phi < 0\) 1.93052 2.43763

For \(\phi = 0\), \(y \leftarrow 0\), and \(x \leftarrow 0.85\lambda\).
