[OSRS-PROJ] Projection Information Weather Satellite

[Ray Bryan E 2Lt 1 OSS/OSW]

Alex,

Thanks for the information.  According the NOAA, its is a GOES projection.
(Geostationary Satellite).  The satellite is in geosync orbit over -75
Longitude and 0 degrees latitude.  They have a fortran program they use to
map to this projection.  I think I will need to do some more research on
this.

Thanks again,
Bryan

Brayn,

I think that will not work with affine transforms 
without having the right projection of the earh body
to the a plain sheet. Do you have a idea what they mean 
with Oblique Horizon projection

it seems to be a photo where the satellite is turned 
over the horizont normal. I think it could determined 
if you have the trace coordinates of the satellite.

To program it it's to high for me and I have to grabb 
deep into the proj library. I think you should write
Gerlad Everden. He is the creator of the library
