********************************************************************************
Airy
********************************************************************************
The Airy projection is an azimuthal minimum error projection for the region
within the small or great circle defined by an angular distance,
:math:`\phi_b`, from the tangency point of the plane :math:`( \lambda_0, \phi_0 )`.

################################################################################
.. option:: +lat_b
Angular distance from tangency point of the plane :math:`( \lambda_0, \phi_0 )`
where the error is kept at minimum.
*Defaults to 90° (suitable for hemispherical maps).*
.. option:: +no_cut
Do not cut at hemisphere limit
