Effects of elevation #133

Closed greatjack1 closed 10 months ago

greatjack1 commented 6 years ago

This is not a issue with the kosher cocoa lib, however since the kosher cocoa lib also uses elevation to calculate zmanim, I thought you might have a answer to my question.

I put up a web based zmanim api service at https://wyrezmanim.herokuapp.com. Source code is at https://github.com/greatjack1/dotnetcoreZmanim and I wanted to know if I should make elevation be a required parameter when calculating zmanim or not? Does it make a big enough difference that I should force users to add it?

Generally we use sea-level but some folks hold by elevation, so it's included.
