Description
Calculates for all segments of the input lines the planar, great elliptic, and loxodrome distance and re-projects the latter two to the projection of the input lines. Projection routines make use of the PROJ generic coordinate transformation software. PROJ Version is 7.2.1 PROJ Homepage
