Returns the decimal latitude or longitude of the edges of a 2-dimensional square that circumscribes a circle of a given radius from a given origin (altitude, speed, and bearing are ignored). This is useful for quickly approximating whether a group of points are within a distance of an origin. If direction parameter is set to south or north then a decimal latitude is returned. If the direction parameter is set to east or west then a decimal longitude is returned.
