Convert longitude and latitude co-ordinates to kilometres west-east and
south-north from axes through (lon0,lat0) using the
"spherical law of cosines".
latlong2km(lon, lat, lon0 = sum(range(lon))/2, lat0 = sum(range(lat))/2)list with elements km.e and km.n.

WARNING: This is an approximate procedure for converting between latitude/
longitude and Northing/Easting. Consider using projection conversions
available in packages sp, sf and rgdal for better results.
