Note that:
–Some generic projection systems (e.g. Stereographic, Polar Stereographic, Gnomonic, Mercator, Miller, Albers, etc.) require specific parameters to be adapted depending on the geographic location of the data to process (i.e. Latitude/Longitude scene position). In these cases the user is prompted to enter such parameters in the "Cartographic Parameters" panel (refer to the provided "References" for details).
–The cartographic information, when importing geocoded data in ENVI format, are automatically read from the ENVI header file (.hdr) only for GEOGLOBAL and UTM reference systems.
–The Albers projection is intended for data in polar regions.
