+# Hawkeye map insets
+# ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+#
+# :class:`~ultraplot.axes.GeoAxes` adds :meth:`~ultraplot.axes.GeoAxes.hawkeye`
+# for geographic callout maps. The inset is anchored at ``xy`` in a parent coordinate
+# system, and its ``size`` is a fraction of the parent axes. Supply ``extent`` to set
+# the inset map scope and draw a matching indicator and optional connectors on the
+# parent map. Hawkeyes are excluded from automatic layout, so they can extend beyond
+# the parent axes without reserving subplot space.
+#
+# Rectangular hawkeyes preserve both the requested extent and projection scale. A
+# circular frame cannot simultaneously preserve projection scale and display an exact
+# non-square extent. Circular hawkeyes therefore expand the shorter projected dimension
+# to retain the projection; use a square extent when the exact circular map scope is
+# important, or pass ``aspect='auto'`` to fit the exact extent with distortion.
+#
+# The following dependency-free example shows a Singapore city locator on a world map.
+# The returned inset is an ordinary geographic axes, so optional geospatial libraries
+# can draw external data inside it. For example, `OSMnx <https://osmnx.readthedocs.io/>`__
+# can provide street geometry when it is installed separately:
+#
+# .. code-block:: python
+#
+#    import osmnx as ox
+#    from cartopy import crs as ccrs
+#
+#    network = ox.graph_from_point((1.3521, 103.8198), dist=8_000, network_type="drive")
+#    streets = ox.graph_to_gdfs(network, nodes=False)
+#    streets.plot(ax=inax, color="0.3", linewidth=0.4, transform=ccrs.PlateCarree())
+#
+# The data download and OpenStreetMap attribution are the responsibility of the
+# application using that optional integration.
