Method Details

init (self, lat0, lon0, datum=None, **name)
(Constructor)

New azimuthal projection.

Arguments:

lat0 - Latitude of the center point (degrees90).
lon0 - Longitude of the center point (degrees180).
datum - Optional datum or ellipsoid (Datum, Ellipsoid, Ellipsoid2 or a_f2Tuple) or scalar earth radius (meter).
name - Optional name=NN for the projection (str).

Raises:

AzimuthalError - Invalid lat0 or lon0 or (spherical) datum.
TypeError - Invalid datum.

Overrides: object.__init__

forward (self, lat, lon, **name)

Convert a geodetic location to azimuthal equidistant east- and northing.

Arguments:

lat - Latitude of the location (degrees90).
lon - Longitude of the location (degrees180).
name - Optional name=NN for the location (str).

Returns:

An Azimuthal7Tuple

(x, y, lat, lon, azimuth, 
          scale, datum)

with easting x and northing y of point in meter and lat and lon in degrees and azimuth clockwise from true North. The scale of the projection is 1 in radial direction and is 1 / reciprocal in the direction perpendicular to this.

Raises:

AzimuthalError - Invalid lat or lon.

Overrides: _AzimuthalBase.forward

reverse (self, x, y, LatLon=None, **name_LatLon_kwds)

Convert an azimuthal equidistant location to geodetic lat- and longitude.

Arguments:

x - Easting of the location (meter).
y - Northing of the location (meter).
LatLon - Class to use (LatLon) or None.
name_LatLon_kwds - Optional name=NN for the location and optional, additional LatLon keyword arguments, ignored if LatLon is None.

Returns:

The geodetic (LatLon) or if

LatLon is 
          None

an Azimuthal7Tuple

(x, y, lat, lon, azimuth, 
          scale, datum)

Overrides: _AzimuthalBase.reverse

Note: The lat will be in the range [-90..90] degrees and lon in the range [-180..180] degrees. The scale of the projection is 1 in radial direction, azimuth clockwise from true North and 1 / reciprocal in the direction perpendicular to this.
