+Oblique Mercator
+================
+
+Oblique configurations of the cylinder give rise to the oblique Mercator
+projection. It is particularly useful when mapping regions of large lateral
+extent in an oblique direction. Both parallels and meridians are complex
+curves. The projection was developed in the early 1900s by several workers.

+The projection is set with **o** or **O**. The pole is set in the 
+northern hemisphere with **a** or the southern hemisphere 
+with **A**. The central meridian is set by *lon0/lat0*. The oblique equator 
+is set by *azimuth*. Align the y-axis
