             Summary: GeoPaths need ability to compute distance along route 
WITHOUT perpendicular leg
                 Key: LUCENE-7962
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7962
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: modules/spatial3d
    Affects Versions: 6.6
            Reporter: Karl Wright
            Assignee: Karl Wright


Distance computation for GeoPaths properly computes distance as distance along 
the route PLUS the perpendicular distance from the route to the point in 
question.  That is fine but there is another use case for GeoPaths, which is to 
compute distance along the route without the perpendicular leg.

The proposal is to add a method for GeoPath implementations only that computes 
this distance.
