Geospatial library

Often scientist needs to deal with geospatial coordinate (latitude, longitude), maps and distances.

This include efficient data-structures like KD-Tree or RTree to compute distances between points and distance formulas like Haversine to compute distance on a sphere.

Notable non-Nim libraries include Python’s scipy.spatial, Geopy, Shapely

Status: in-progress R-tree forum thread.
