It seems natural to want to work with latitude and
longitude coordinates when you are working with map
projections, but resist that thought! To do this kind
of reprojection properly, you want to be in XY space.
(IDL sometimes calls this UV space, but in any case
it is a rectangular space where things make a lot of
sense, as opposed to, say, lat/lon space where they
don't.)
Have a look at this article for additional information:
