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

| **Defined area** | Global, although only one hemisphere can be seen at a |
| | time |
+---------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
| **Alias** | ortho |
+---------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
| **Domain** | 2D |
