This certainly coincides with what I'm seeing. St Petersburg, Fl ->
Houston, Tx = 787 miles. Clearly less than the 835 miles to Washington,
DC.
Could something like ensuring the difference in longitude does not
exceed a certain value (presumably somewhere in the 7.5 degree mark)
help reduce (or even eliminate) this problem?
I.e. the code would read something like this (WARNING - untested...
quite possibly not the correct syntax!):
for (l = zones; l; l = l->next) {
ClockZoneInfo *info = l->data;
clock_zoneinfo_get_coords (info, &zlat, &zlon);
d = distance (lat, lon, zlat*M_PI/180.0,
zlon*M_PI/180.0);
if (d < dist && abs(lon - zlon*M_PI/180.0) <= 7.5) {
best = info;
dist = d;
}
}
