Calculate the curvilinear distance along the geometric object.

The distance is calculated on the surface of a spheroid (default: WGS84). Different geodetic calculation strategies are available for accuracy/performance trade-offs.

Parameters:

  • geometry – Geometric object.

  • spheroid – Optional spheroid for geodetic calculations. If not provided, uses WGS84 ellipsoid.

  • strategy – Calculation strategy.

Returns:

Curvilinear distance in meters.
