| Jun 25, 2014 at 11:23 | comment | added | simonC | I had a mistake in my code in the formula for radiusInDegreesLongitude, in the cosine part I should give the radian of y parameter which is a latitude off the current point. I tested the shape returned in GooleEarth and it looks it is caclulated right. The porblem is that when I put this shape in the hibernate spatial query it is not so accurate and the results are for a few meters wrong it returns to much results also results that are for a few meters outside the circle. I will try to make a query as is and then programaticla filter the points of wrong distance until I find a beter solution. | |
