Hi,

My concern was if the accuracy of conversions is good enough in WGS 84 system 
because one meter jumps around the North pole have quite big effect on Lon 
coordinates and quite small effect on Lat coordinates.

Aihe: Re: [OpenLayers-Dev] OpenLayers 6 and only WGS 84 API with Polar 
coordinate systems

Hey,

nothing to be worried about. We’re only adding convenience, not removing any 
features regarding projections.

Andreas.

Hi,

I followed the recording from FOSS4G 2019 about the new features in OL 6 
https://media.ccc.de/v/bucharest-337-openlayers-6-there-and-back-again. At time 
16:35 there is a slide that states “Use only geographic coordinates (WGS 84) in 
the API”. I wonder if such change would make it difficult to work with the 
Polar coordinate systems like those used in the Arctic SDI geoportal 
https://geoportal.arctic-sdi.org/ (press the World icon under the scale slider 
for selecting your favourite). Do we need to be worried?
