Gnomonic

The Gnomonic projection is used for plotting great circle arcs as straight lines on a map. Scale, shape and area are badly distorted along these paths, but the great circle routes are precise in relation to the sphere.   The "Gnomonic" projection has the following parameters:

• False Northing

• False Easting

• Longitude of natural origin

• Latitude of natural origin

• Spherical Radius
