In your supplementary, you have mentioned

The model of the world that we subscribe to within our map and dataset is a local tangent plane centered at a central point located within each city.

What is the WGS84 coordinates of this central point, for Miami and Pittsburgh?

Hi @harishrithish7 , In Appendix A.1 of the Arxiv version, we have the UTM:

In Pittsburgh, our city origin lies at 583710.0070 Easting, 4477259.9999 Northing in UTM Zone 17. In Miami, our city origin lies at 580560.0088 Easting, 2850959.9999 Northing in UTM Zone 17.

An online converter tells me the corresponding WGSS84 is around:
Pittsburgh (40.44177903050335,-80.01294377278833) for (lat,long)
Miami: (25.774525799252665,-80.19656914436197)
