Playing around with the idea of snapping to a latlon grid, by rounding the latlon values of my mouse coordinates to 1 decimal place.

Not exactly sure how this will be useful, but it could be an interesting way to interact with a values binned to a grid on the globe.

This is the cartesian equivalent of the rotation matrix,
which is the product of the following rotations (in numbered order):
1. longitude: λ around the y axis (which points up in the canvas)
2. latitude: -ϕ around the x axis (which points right in the canvas)
3. yaw: γ around the z axis (which points out of the screen)
NB. If you measure rotations in a positive direction according to the right-hand rule
(point your right thumb in the positive direction of the rotation axis, and rotate in the
direction of your curled fingers), then the latitude rotation is negative.
R(λ, ϕ, γ) =
[[ sin(γ)sin(λ)sin(ϕ)+cos(γ)cos(λ), −sin(γ)cos(ϕ), −sin(γ)sin(ϕ)cos(λ)+sin(λ)cos(γ)],
[ −sin(λ)sin(ϕ)cos(γ)+sin(γ)cos(λ), cos(γ)cos(ϕ), sin(ϕ)cos(γ)cos(λ)+sin(γ)sin(λ)],
[ −sin(λ)cos(ϕ), −sin(ϕ), cos(λ)cos(ϕ)]]
If you then apply a "trackball rotation" of δλ around the y axis, and -δϕ around the
x axis, you get this horrible composite matrix:
R2(λ, ϕ, γ, δλ, δϕ) =
[[−sin(δλ)sin(λ)cos(ϕ)+(sin(γ)sin(λ)sin(ϕ)+cos(γ)cos(λ))cos(δλ),
−sin(γ)cos(δλ)cos(ϕ)−sin(δλ)sin(ϕ),
sin(δλ)cos(λ)cos(ϕ)−(sin(γ)sin(ϕ)cos(λ)−sin(λ)cos(γ))cos(δλ)],
[−sin(δϕ)sin(λ)cos(δλ)cos(ϕ)−(sin(γ)sin(λ)sin(ϕ)+cos(γ)cos(λ))sin(δλ)sin(δϕ)−(sin(λ)sin(ϕ)cos(γ)−sin(γ)cos(λ))cos(δϕ),
sin(δλ)sin(δϕ)sin(γ)cos(ϕ)−sin(δϕ)sin(ϕ)cos(δλ)+cos(δϕ)cos(γ)cos(ϕ),
sin(δϕ)cos(δλ)cos(λ)cos(ϕ)+(sin(γ)sin(ϕ)cos(λ)−sin(λ)cos(γ))sin(δλ)sin(δϕ)+(sin(ϕ)cos(γ)cos(λ)+sin(γ)sin(λ))cos(δϕ)],
[−sin(λ)cos(δλ)cos(δϕ)cos(ϕ)−(sin(γ)sin(λ)sin(ϕ)+cos(γ)cos(λ))sin(δλ)cos(δϕ)+(sin(λ)sin(ϕ)cos(γ)−sin(γ)cos(λ))sin(δϕ),
sin(δλ)sin(γ)cos(δϕ)cos(ϕ)−sin(δϕ)cos(γ)cos(ϕ)−sin(ϕ)cos(δλ)cos(δϕ),
cos(δλ)cos(δϕ)cos(λ)cos(ϕ)+(sin(γ)sin(ϕ)cos(λ)−sin(λ)cos(γ))sin(δλ)cos(δϕ)−(sin(ϕ)cos(γ)cos(λ)+sin(γ)sin(λ))sin(δϕ)]]
by equating components of the matrics
(label them [[a00, a01, a02], [a10, a11, a12], [a20, a21, a22]])
we can find an equivalent rotation R(λ', ϕ', γ') == RC(λ, ϕ, γ, δλ, δϕ) :
if cos(ϕ') != 0:
γ' = atan2(-RC01, RC11)
ϕ' = atan2(-RC21, γ' == 0 ? RC11 / cos(γ') : - RC01 / sin(γ'))
λ' = atan2(-RC20, RC22)
else:
// when cos(ϕ') == 0, RC21 == - sin(ϕ') == +/- 1
// the solution is degenerate, requiring just that
// γ' - λ' = atan2(RC00, RC10) if RC21 == -1 (ϕ' = π/2)
// or γ' + λ' = atan2(RC00, RC10) if RC21 == 1 (ϕ' = -π/2)
// so choose:
γ' = atan2(RC10, RC00) - RC21 * λ
ϕ' = - RC21 * π/2
λ' = λ
