slant_zenithal_perspective-1.2.0

The slant zenithal perspective projection.

Description

Corresponds to the SZP projection in the FITS WCS standard.

See zenithal for the definition of the full transformation.

The pixel-to-sky transformation is defined as:

\[\theta = \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{180^{\circ}}{\pi R_\theta}\right)\]

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

\[R_\theta = \frac{180^{\circ}}{\pi}\cot \theta\]

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