6 GIS::Distance::ALT - Andoyer-Lambert-Thomas distance calculations.

9 The ALT formula is intended as a much faster, but slightly less
10 accurate, alternative of the GIS::Distance::Vincenty formula. This
11 formulas is about 5x faster than Vincenty.
12
13 The code for this formula was taken from Geo::Distance::XS and modified
14 to fit.
15
16 A faster (XS) version of this formula is available as
17 GIS::Distance::Fast::ALT.
18
19 Normally this module is not used directly. Instead GIS::Distance is
20 used which in turn interfaces with the various formula classes.
