Leaflet Providing invalid Lng/Lat coordinates when location duplicates on display

Question

Question

Is the lng/lat provided by leaflet not a GPS coordinate? Do I have a way to convert it into GPS coordinates or is this a bug in leaflet?

Steps to reproduce

Setup a map that repeats. Click on the repeating section, the click event will return diffent and often invalid coordinates.

Expected behavior

The correct (repeated) coordinate would be provided for each GPS location, regardless if it repeats on the display.

Code to show error

Simply bind a click event

L.map(name, {fullscreenControl: true}).fitWorld().zoomIn().on("click", selectorConfirm);

function selectorConfirm = function(e) {
console.log('selected:'+e.latlng.lat+','+e.latlng.lng);
}

Minimal example reproducing the issue

Click on map -> the console log will output what the gps coordinates are provided by leaflet.

The code is super simple, if you need to access it:

function map() => inits leaflet map.prototype.selectorConfirm () -> is what is collects the event, is doing the console.logging

Answer 1

Looks like this is how Leaflet is designed:

It can be addressed by using:

e.latlng.wrap();
e.latlng.wrap().lat;
