Puerto Rico Geographic Measurement Method
Puerto Rico Geographic Measurement Method is a method created by Radamés J. Valentín Reyes for measuring geographic distances without using integrals and other geographic measurement methods like haversine and vincenty formulas. The method consists of using the sea level to assume the earth is a perfect sphere and creating two cross sections on the planet's equator, a vertical(on the latitude) and a horizontal(on the longitude). Then use the Circumference formula to convert the circles resulting from the cross-section into a plane to be able to draw trajectories and measure distance without having to integrate anything. With its formulas you can convert between angles and Units on the plane and then use the other formulas convert back to angles.
Full explanation on this method and formulas is linked on this page references in a presentation exported to PDF named "A change of perspective".
