    Description

      Satellite-tracking projections are projections in which groundtracks for satellites orbiting the Earth with same orbital parameters are shown as straight line on the map. This projection would be useful for improving the convergence problem when using localization grid such as the ones encoded in netCDF files (SIS-446). This projection has no EPSG code, but is described in Snyder's book at page 230 to 238.
