Description : calculate distances and closest locations (XS version)

Geo:istance is a Perl library aiming to provide as many tools to make
it as simple as possible to calculate distances between geographic
points, and anything that can be derived from that. Currently there is
support for finding the closest locations within a specified distance,
to find the closest number of points to a specified point, and to do
basic point-to-point distance calculations.
.
NB! The alternative GIS:istance module is being worked on as a
replacement for this module. In the near future Geo:istance will
become a lightweight wrapper around GIS:istance so that legacy code
benefits from fixes to GIS:istance through the old Geo:istance API.
For any new developement it is recommended to try use GIS:istance.
.
This package provides the faster XS implementation.
