# Sinusoidal

Name | Sinusoidal EPSG Code |
GeoTIFF Code | CT_Sinusoidal (24)
OGC WKT Name | Sinusoidal
Supported By | GeoTIFF, PROJ.4, OGC WKT

### Projection Parameters

Name | EPSG # | GeoTIFF ID | OGC WKT | Units | Notes Longitude of projection center | 2 | ProjCenterLong | longitude_of_center | Angular |
False Easting | 6 | FalseEasting | false_easting | Linear |
False Northing | 7 | FalseNorthing | false_northing | Linear |

### Notes

Intergraph files use NatOriginLat/Long instead of CenterLat/Long. Earlier discussions of Sinusoidal don't include a scale, and CenterLat, but Intergraph's files do. I have omitted them from the above list, but I imagine they may be added back.

### PROJ.4 Organization

      +proj=sinu +lon_0=Longitude at projection center
                 +x_0=False Easting
                 +y_0=False Northing
