Projection : Space Oblique Mercator General class : modified cylindrical Characteristics: basically conformal Earth model : ellipsoid or sphere
Defining the MAPUNITS:
MapUnits "som" ! Standard name MapUnits "som e0" ! Standard name and ellipsoid
Other parameters:
LandsatNumber "landsat_number" ! Required LandsatPath "path_number" ! Required FalseEasting "false_easting" ! Optional, default is zero FalseNorthing "false_northing" ! Optional, default is zero
Possible errors:
E100, "Invalid data" - In initializing for the projection, the
Landsat satellite number and/or path number are out of range.
E330, "Calculation failed to converge to a solution" - In converting
from projection coordinates to geographic coordinates, too
many iterations were made.
