Description

This is the simplest projection in principle, but quite different from all other projections in the implementation details because it can be represented by an affine transform instead than non-linear formulas.

This projection is described in §1.3.14.1 of IOGP Publication 373-7-2 – Geomatics Guidance Note number 7, part 2 – April 2015.

Note: We do not provide "Pseudo Plate Carrée" (EPSG:9825) from §1.3.14.2 at this time because that pseudo-projection is only the identity transform. Even the semi-major and semi-minor axis lengths are set to 1.
