=head1 NAME

GIS::Distance::Constants - Constants used by formula classes.

=head1 CONSTANTS

=head2 $KILOMETER_RHO

Number of kilometers around the equator of the earth.

C<6371.64>

=head2 $DEG_RATIO

Number of units in a single decimal degree (lat or lon) at the equator.

C<0.0174532925199433>

This value is derived from:

    $gis = GIS::Distance->new( 'Haversine' );
    $DEG_RATIO = $gis->distance( 10,0 => 11,0 )->km() / $KILOMETER_RHO;
