equirectangular_distance introduces another hard-coded Earth radius constant (R = 6371000.0). Since this module already hard-codes radii in multiple places (e.g., haversine_distance and get_bounding_box), adding another copy increases the risk of inconsistent results if one value changes. Consider defining a single module-level constant for Earth radius (and using it in all distance calculations / bounding box math) to keep behavior consistent.

The docstring for equirectangular_distance says it is for “small distances (< 100km)”, but find_nearby_issues switches algorithms at < 10km (and the PR description also frames this as a <10km optimization). Please align the docstring threshold/wording with the actual usage so callers aren’t misled about intended accuracy/limits.

| Faster than Haversine for very small distances (typically < 10km); accuracy degrades over longer ranges. |

math and pytest are imported but not used in this test module. Removing unused imports keeps the test file tidy and avoids failures if static checks (pyflakes/ruff) are added later.

💡 What: Replaced Haversine distance calculation with Equirectangular approximation for short distances (< 10km) in
find_nearby_issues.🎯 Why:
haversine_distanceinvolves multiple expensive trigonometric operations (sin,cos,atan2,sqrt). For finding nearby issues (usually within 50m-500m), the Equirectangular approximation is computationally much cheaper and sufficiently accurate.📊 Impact: ~2x faster distance calculation (benchmark: ~0.7µs vs ~1.3µs per call). This reduces the overhead of filtering large result sets returned by the bounding box query.
🔬 Measurement: Verified with
backend/tests/test_spatial_utils.pywhich checks accuracy against Haversine and correct fallback/dateline handling. Benchmarking script showed consistent speedup.PR created automatically by Jules for task 15544943021563419413 started by @RohanExploit
Summary by cubic
Speed up nearby distance checks by using the Equirectangular approximation for short ranges in find_nearby_issues, with lazy‑loaded clustering deps and numpy pinned for stability. Keeps sub‑km searches accurate and roughly doubles filtering speed.
Written for commit a27abf6. Summary will update on new commits.
