Hi @genthalili thank you for this great package!

I seem to have a problem plotting routes between the West coast of the US and Asia though... Is this something I am doing wrong or is it a known bug?

Many thanks!

Hi @tula-geo, can you share origin and destination inputs for this case?

tula-geo commented 2 years ago

@genthalili Thanks for your quick response!

Here the latitudes and longitudes of some examples that went wrong:

Vancouver (49.28497584, -123.1500095) - Tokyo (35.72637966, 139. 6488745)
Singapore (3.2777619, 104.0787642) - San Francisco (37.81212876, -122.3139684)
Shanghai (31.2, 121.8) - Los Angeles (33.7, -118.3)

@tula-geo Which version are you using? I tried your examples above, and they all look good to me ( also you need to set [long, lat] for origin and destination inputs) :

You should update to the latest version 1.0.8

@genthalili Ha, you were right, I had not specified a version when installing the package and was apparently on 1.0.6. This looks much better:

Thanks a lot - this is great stuff!

genthalili commented 2 years ago

@tula-geo great to hear that :)

then I'm closing this issue!
