The oblique Mercator projection of the ellipsoid of revolution IEa2,b
Abstract While the standardMercator projection / transverse Mercator projecton maps the equator / the transverse metaequator equivalent to the meridian of referenceequidistantly, theoblique Mercator projection aims at aconformal mapping of the ellipsoid of revolution constraint to anequidistant mapping of an oblique metaequator. Obliqueness is determined by the extension of the area to be mapped, e.g. determined by the inclination of satellite orbits: Satellite cameras map the area just under the orbit geometry. Here we derive themapping equations of theoblique Mercator projection being characterized to beconformal andequidistant on the oblique metaequator extending results ofM. Hotine (1946, 1947).
