  Description     : Simple geo calculator for points and distances

Geo::Calc implements a variety of calculations for latitude/longitude points

All these formulare are for calculations on the basis of a spherical earth
(ignoring ellipsoidal effects) which is accurate enough* for most purposes.

[ In fact, the earth is very slightly ellipsoidal; using a spherical model
gives errors typically up to 0.3% ].

The package will be maintained under the umbrella of the Debian Perl Group.

This package is required for libgeo-gpx-perl (>= 1.00).
