A Guide to NSIDC's Polar Stereographic Projection
There are two other Polar Stereographic projections, described in Table 3 (Northern Hemisphere: EPSG 3413) and Table 4 (Southern Hemisphere: EPSG 3976), that newer NSIDC data sets use. These projections are based on the WGS 1984 ellipsoid (WGS 84/NSIDC Sea Ice Polar Stereographic North and WGS 84/NSIDC Sea Ice Polar Stereographic South).
Stereographic—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation - Esri
The stereographic projection is appropriate for mapping the polar regions at large scales, such as navigational and topographic maps. It is used by UPS maps showing areas north of 84 degrees north and south of 80 degrees south that aren't included in the UTM coordinate system.
WGS 84 / NSIDC Sea Ice Polar Stereographic South - EPSG:3976
Mar 14, 2020 · Scope: Polar research. Remarks: Geodetically preferred alternative to NSIDC PS South (see CRS code 3412). Area of use: Southern hemisphere - south of 60°S onshore and offshore - Antarctica. Coordinate system: Cartesian 2D CS for south polar azimuthal lonO 0°E. Axes: X,Y. Orientations: X along 90°E, Y along 0°E meridians.
NCL Graphics: Polar Stereographic Projections
polar_1.ncl: The simplest. Reads in data and then creates a default plot. gsnPolar = "NH" gsn_csm_contour_map_polar is the plot interface that draws a contour plot over a polar stereographic map. A Python version of this projection is available here.

Polar Stereographic Projection# For convenience, the projections npstere and spstere are provided for easy access to the polar aspect of the stereographic conformal projection.
Map Projections | METEO 3: Introductory Meteorology - John A.
On a polar stereographic projection, the observer's perspective comes from looking down at either the north or south pole. This unique vantage point allows operational weather forecasters to watch, for example, the movements of weather system over long distances.
PGDA - Mercury South Polar Topography - NASA
We thus produced a new higher-resolution topographic map of Mercury’s south polar region (75°-90° South, covering ~1.3 million km 2) by using data collected by the NASA MESSENGER spacecraft's Mercury Dual
South Polar Projection of Earth - NASA
Sep 9, 1997 · South Polar Projection of Earth. This view of the Earth shows a wonderfully unique but physically impossible view of the southern hemisphere and Antarctica. While a spacecraft could find itself directly over the Earth's pole, roughly half of the image should be in darkness!
complex analysis - Stereographic Projection Through South Pole ...
Sep 16, 2021 · The stereographic projection of $(u, v, w)$ should be $\frac{u}{1 + w} + i \frac{v}{1 + w}$, from the south pole. The sign change of $v$ makes no sense geometrically speaking. $\endgroup$ – Theo Bendit

The Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) grid employs the UPS (Universal Polar Stereographic) projection from the North Pole to lat. 84° N., and from the South Pole to lat. 80° S. For the UPS, the scale at each pole is reduced to 0.994, resulting in a standard parallel of 81°06'52.3" N. or S.
