Martin Desruisseaux updated SIS-223:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
The orthographic case is a special case of _"Vertical perspective (ortographic 
case)"_ with all points on the ellipsoid (height = 0).

An {{Orthographic}} file is available on Geotk, but can not be ported as-is in 
SIS for licensing reason, except the conversion derivative formulas and the 
work on (de)normalization matrices. However this map conversion is relatively 
simple, so we can restart from the formulas given in the EPSG guide.

See §1.3.18 in IOGP Publication 373-7-2 – Geomatics Guidance Note number 7, 
part 2 – April 2015.
