Inputs
map - Array containing a full map of surface, see RENDER.PRO for a
more complete description of what's needed here.
npix - size of the array for the computation (pixels), the image used
for the computation is square and the object just fits in
the array.
radius - Radius of object in km.
pole - Position angle of pole, east from north (degrees)
selat - Sub-earth latitude (degrees)
selon - Sub-earth longitude (degrees)
sslat - Sub-solar latitude (degrees) Only used for Hapke functions.
sslon - Sub-solar longitude (degrees) Only used for Hapke functions.
Optional Input Parameters
Keyword Input Parameters
Accepts all keywords supported by RENDER.PRO. Many of these are needed
to support the proper calculation of the surface reflectance.
Outputs
dx - X position of the center-of-light in km (actually this is just
in the same units as radius but generally should be km).
dy - Y position of the center-of-light.
Keyword Output Parameters
IMAGE - Rendered image computed for calculation.
FLUX - Total flux (I/F) of the rendered image.

2009/02/01, MWB, nearly a total rewrite both in documentation, coding, and
operation. This new version is NOT compatible with the old.
