The Pannini Projection – perspective images with very wide fields of view

I know astronomical and spherical projections well, but there is whole new world of 'architectural' projections:

Ah, that tends to explain the name of this 360 degree panorama photo ball: https://www.panono.com/

So, is it "Gian Paolo Pannini" as stated here, or "Giovanni Paolo Panini" as wikipedia claims?

is there a lightroom plugin?
