Orthographic
********************************************************************************
+The orthographic projection is a perspective azimuthal projection centered
+around a given latitude and longitude.

++---------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+| **Classification** | Azimuthal |
++---------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+| **Available forms** | Forward and inverse, spherical projection |
++---------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+| **Defined area** | Global, although only one hemisphere can be seen at a |
+| | time |
++---------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+| **Options** |
++---------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+| `+lon_0` | Longitudinal projection center |
++---------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
+| `+lat_0` | Latitudinal projection center |
