Package: python3-vincenty (0.1.4-2)

Python library for calculating geographical distance with high accuracy

Vincenty is a Python library that calculates the geographical distance between two points with extreme accuracy, utilizing Vincenty's formula. Based on the WGS 84 reference ellipsoid, this method is precise to within 1 mm or better. Widely employed in geographic information systems (GIS), it offers superior accuracy compared to great-circle distance calculations that assume a spherical Earth. The library supports calculations in both kilometers and miles.
