Tool Tissot's Indicatrix

Creates a shapes layer with Tissot's indicatrices for chosen projection.
Projection routines make use of the Proj.4 Cartographic Projections library.
Proj.4 was originally developed by Gerald Evenden and later continued by the United States Department of the Interior, Geological Survey (USGS).
Proj.4 Version is 6.0.0
