93   Divide the hemisphere using the LBNL/Klems "full" sampling basis.

96   .BI h =kh
97   Divide the hemisphere using the LBNL/Klems "half" sampling basis.

100   .BI h =kq
101   Divide the hemisphere using the LBNL/Klems "quarter" sampling basis.
102 + (Use "h=-kq" for left-handed coordinates.)
103   .TP
104   .BI h =rN
105   Divide the hemisphere using Reinhart's substructuring of the Tregenza
# Line 106 | Line 109 | divisions in each dimension.
109   If it is not given,
110   .I N
111   defaults to 1, which is just the Tregenza sky.
112 + (Use "h=-rN" for left-handed coordinates.)
113   .TP
114 + .BI h =cie
115 + Divide the hemisphere into CIE sky scanner directions, which is
116 + similar to Tregenza but with different starting azimuths and
117 + reversing row direction at each new altitude.
118 + (Use "h=-cie" for left-handed coordinates.)
119 + .TP
120   .BI h =scN
121   Subdivide the hemisphere using the Shirley-Chiu square-to-disk mapping with an
122   .I NxN
123   grid over the square.
124 + (Use "h=-scN" for left-handed coordinates.)
125   .TP
126   .BI u =[-]{X|Y|Z|ux,uy,uz}
127   Orient the "up" direction for the hemisphere using the indicated axis or direction
128   vector.

159   Though it may be counter-intuitive, receivers are often light sources,
160   since samples end up there in a backwards ray-tracing system such as RADIANCE.
161   When using local geometry, the overall aperture shape should be close to flat.
