It seems filling water/land masses are not 100% correct for the Spilhaus projection. |
Looks like this is an know issue, see GenericMappingTools/gmt#8745 (comment). |
Maybe we can just plot the coastlines in this example, and add a note that filling land/water doesn't work well? |
So far so good |

Please add a note that this projection works well for coastlines but has issues for filling land/water masses. |

Propably more a GMT related question: But still wondering why the synthax for this projection is different comparted to the other projections (see also the text at https://pygmt-dev--4657.org.readthedocs.build/en/4657/projections/index.html#projections). Why we do not use something like Sp/width ?

Because GMT is running out of single-letter codes for map projections. -JS is for already used by General stereographic projection. Using -JSp may be more confusing.

Add the Spilhaus projection to the supported GMT projections.
