(I would like to answer the other TI question you reference, but it calls for a detailed calculation and I just don't have the time to present that right now.) | |

My mathematically challenged brain wants an accompanying visual to help interpret the quantitative results, something a la Tissot Indicatrix. (I was about to add "but that's a new question", only it turns out not to be so: gis.stackexchange.com/questions/31651/… :-) | |
