Syntax
Graticule
This projection is constructed by calculating a three-dimensional frame and displaying the map objects on the surface of this frame.
Features
In the three-dimensional sense, this projection is true in scale, equal-area, conformal, minimum error, and equidistant everywhere. When displayed, however, this projection looks like an Orthographic azimuthal projection, provided that the MATLAB Axes Projection property is set to 'orthographic'.
Parallels
The globe requires no standard parallels.
Remarks
This is the only three-dimensional representation provided for display. Unless some other display purpose requires three dimensions, the Orthographic projection's display is equivalent.
