    interpolation
    :   Texture interpolation

        - `Linear`
          Linear – Linear interpolation.

          Equirectangular – Equirectangular or latitude-longitude projection.
        - `MIRROR_BALL`
          Mirror Ball – Projection from an orthographic photo of a mirror ball.

        Type:
        :   enum in [`'EQUIRECTANGULAR'`, `'MIRROR_BALL'`], default `'EQUIRECTANGULAR'`
