/*
	Location Estimation

	Distance Value

	- 0: Other side of the Internet.
	- 100: Very near, up to same network / datacenter.

	Weighting Goal

	- Exposure to different networks shall be limited as much as possible.
	- A single network should not see a connection over a large distance.
	- Latency should be low.

	Weighting Intentions

	- Being on the same continent is better than being in the same AS.
	- Being in the same country is better than having low coordinate distance.
	- Coordinate distance is only a tie breaker, as accuracy varies heavily.
	- Same AS with lower coordinate distance beats being on the same continent.

/*
	About the Accuracy Radius

	- Range: 1-1000
	- Seen values (estimation): 1,5,10,20,50,100,200,500,1000
	- The default seems to be 100.

	Cxamples

	- 1.1.1/24 has 1000: Anycast
	- 8.8.0/19 has 1000: Anycast
	- 8.8.52/22 has 1: City of Westfield

	Conclusion

	- Ignore or penalize high accuracy radius.
