Two Point Equidistant

proj-string: +proj=tpeqd +lat_1=60 +lat_2=65

Parameters

Note

All parameters are optional for the projection.

+lon_1=<value>

Longitude of first point.

+lat_1=<value>

Latitude of first point.

+lon_2=<value>

Longitude of second point.

+lat_2=<value>

Latitude of second point.

+R=<value>

Radius of the sphere, given in meters. If used in conjunction with +ellps, +R takes precedence.

See Ellipsoid size parameters for more information.

+x_0=<value>

False easting, easting at false origin or easting at projection centre (naming and meaning depend on the projection method). Always in meters.

Defaults to 0.0.

+y_0=<value>

False northing, northing at false origin or northing at projection centre (naming and meaning depend on the projection method). Always in meters.

Defaults to 0.0.
