vibeproj.projections.plate_carree

Equidistant Cylindrical / Plate Carree projection.

The trivial projection: x = lon, y = lat (in radians, scaled by the ellipsoid). Used as the default for lat/lon raster data (climate models, global datasets).

Classes

PlateCarree

Equidistant cylindrical projection (x = lon, y = lat).

Module Contents

class vibeproj.projections.plate_carree.PlateCarree

Bases: vibeproj.projections.base.Projection

Equidistant cylindrical projection (x = lon, y = lat).

name = 'eqc'

setup(params: vibeproj.crs.ProjectionParams) → dict

Compute derived parameters from projection params.

Called once at construction time. Returns a dict of computed params that will be passed to forward/inverse.

forward(lam, phi, params, computed, xp)

Forward projection: geographic (lon, lat in radians) -> projected (x, y in meters).

lam: longitude relative to central meridian (radians), array phi: latitude (radians), array Returns (x, y) in projection-native units (before false easting/northing and scale).

inverse(x, y, params, computed, xp)

Inverse projection: projected (x, y) -> geographic (lon, lat in radians).

x, y: projection-native units (after removing false easting/northing and scale). Returns (lam, phi) in radians, with lam relative to central meridian.
