How to translate a given coordinate into a bounding box of “diameter” x?
问题 For example, I have a latitude and longitude in decimal format (as opposed to Degrees-Hours-Minutes like lat=44.1° 9.5' 30''). To search for nearby objects, I must specify the search "radius" as a rectangle with four values: north = 44.1; south = -9.9; east = -22.4; west = 55.2; Is there a formula or rule of thumb how to convert decimal lat/long values into a rectangular bounding box, such that the given latitude/longitude is in the center of that box? Must I fiddle around myself with a WGS84
