PgSphere Vs Haversine Conesearch

At one stage there was some discussion about the accuracy of the pgsphere conesearch formula.

Procedure:

  1. The script runs against the HPASS hopcat2005 dataset that covers the southern sky
  2. I iterate over the entire southern sky in 5 degree increments with a 5 degree search radius (for a total of...

Someone was supposed to have Friday 26th April as a leave day, but for various reasons, spent the day instead coding a new look to the GVL web site.
