Pour mémoire, voici une implémentation complète et commentée des calculs de l'indicateur de Tissot (et connexes) dans R, avec un exemple concret . La source des équations est Map Projections - A Working Manual de John Snyder .

# using `prj` as the projection. `A` is the ellipsoidal semi-major axis (in meters) and `f.inv` is
# the inverse flattening. The projection must return a vector (x, y) when given a vector (lambda, phi).
# (Not vectorized.) Optional arguments `...` are passed to `prj`.
