********************************************************************************
Near-sided perspective
********************************************************************************
The near-sided perspective projection simulates a view from a height
:math:`h` similar to how a satellite in orbit would see it.
+---------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
| **Classification** | Azimuthal. Neither conformal nor equal area. |
+---------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
| **Available forms** | Forward and inverse spherical projection |
+---------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
| **Defined area** | Global, although for one hemisphere at a time. |
+---------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
| **Alias** | nsper |
+---------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
| **Domain** | 2D |
+---------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
| **Input type** | Geodetic coordinates |
+---------------------+----------------------------------------------------------+
| **Output type** | Projected coordinates |
