NStereographicProjection Class

In This Topic

The stereographic projection is a particular mapping (function) that projects a sphere onto a plane.

Object Model

Syntax

public class NStereographicProjection : NMapProjection

Remarks

The fact that no map from the sphere to the plane can accurately represent both angles (and thus shapes) and areas is the fundamental problem of cartography. In general, area-preserving map projections are preferred for statistical applications, because they behave well with respect to integration, while angle-preserving (conformal) map projections are preferred for navigation. The stereographic projection falls into the second category.
