// Make a few assumptions and add noise to latitude/longitude position | |

Thank you! used as is in a mapbox map and worked as charm
🍻
Great!
For the sake of Typescript
Instead of
return (Math.random() * (to - from) + from).toFixed(fixed) * 1;
maybe
return parseFloat((Math.random() * (to - from) + from).toFixed(fixed));
