## Satellite view / polar stereographic

### Description

Produces polar stereographic maps / satellite views.

### Usage

    satellite(map.obj,col="black",lwd=2,lty=1,add=FALSE,
                          las = 1,lon.0=NULL,lat.0=NULL,method="normal",
                          ni=100,nj=100, n.nearest=4,max.dist=3,landdata=addland2)

### Arguments

`map.obj` | a map object (`mapField`).
`col` | contour colours.
`lwd` | contour line width.
`lty` | contour line style.
`add` | FLAG: true adds contour onto old plot.
`las` | see `par`.
`lon.0` | Reference longitude: centre of map; NULL selects automatically.
`lat.0` | Reference latitude: centre of map; NULL selects automatically.
`method` | A choice between "normal","polarstereo", and "distance".
`ni` | Number of grid points along x-axis in new grid.
`nj` | Number of grid points along y-axis in new grid.
`n.nearest` | Number of points to use in re-gridding.
`max.dist` | The maximum inter-point distance used for re-gridding.
`landdata` | "addland" gives hiher resolution for coast lines, but is slower.
