[closed] Distance of OSM

0

Dear OSM,

I have been using anylogistix platform which uses OSM data,

I would like to check if the distance is calculated using manhattan distance/L1 distance? or other methods?

Thanks and regards

You will need to ask the "anylogistix" platform that. OSM only supplies the basic geodata - how someone uses that to calculate distances is outside our control.

Dear Frederik,

Thank you for your kind clarification, I will have to get them to confirm it then. Great thanks!
