Test use of projections

Open sgoodm opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Using appropriate projections could provide a more accurate distance calculation but may have a significant performance cost.

I'd like to test:

  • how much distance calculations actually change (in various scenarios)
  • performance differences

Assuming you could just check the if the CRS unit is degrees or not and switch between haversine and euclidean distance no?

At the very least I think we should warn users if there is a potential inaccuracy, and it would be great to add support for euclidean distances.
