SUBMITTED (26348) - [FEATURE] Expanded radius parameters for PQs

[+W4G_SOTAGoat]

Allow users to specify not only a distance from a particular point, but allow a min and max distance.

 

For example, to catch all the caches in a particular area you could to the following PQs:

 

PQ #1

Radius Min = 0

Radius Max = 5

 

PQ #2

Radius Min = 5

Radius Max = 8

 

PQ #3

Radius Min = 8

Radius Max = 10

 

PQ #4

Radius Min = 10

Radius Max = 11

 

This would be better than having to do radius queries from different points and wind up duplicating numerous caches or missing some between the radius overlaps.

We have a story in our database to enhance PQ filters, including adding distance filters as you describe.

This would be better than having to do radius queries from different points and wind up duplicating numerous caches or missing some between the radius overlaps.

 

You'd better create 4 PQs with radius 11 and slice it by time.

Area based PQs always will overflow at a future time with the necessary of being adjusted from time to time.

Time based PQs are kind of sticky.
