Description: Bindings to the 'GeographicLib' C++ library
for precise geodetic
calculations including geodesic computations (distance,
bearing, paths, intersections), map projections (UTM/UPS,
Transverse Mercator, Lambert Conformal Conic, and more), grid
reference systems (MGRS, Geohash, GARS, Georef), coordinate
conversions (geocentric, local Cartesian), and polygon area on
the WGS84 ellipsoid. All functions are fully vectorized.
