%STEREO  Stereographic Azimuthal Projection
%
%  This is a perspective projection on a plane tangent at the center
%  point from the point antipodal to the center point.  The center
%  point is a pole in the common polar aspect, but it can be any
%  point.  This projection has two significant properties.  It is
%  conformal, being free from angular distortion.  Additionally, all
%  great and small circles are either straight lines or circular
%  arcs on this projection.  Scale is true only at the center point,
%  and is constant along any circle having the center point as its
%  center.  This projection is not equal area.
%
%  The polar aspect of this projection appears to have been developed
%  by the Egyptians and Greeks by the second century B.C.
