⚠️ Note to editors: If these papers look like they might be a good match, click through to the review issue for that paper and invite one or more of the authors before considering asking the reviewers of these papers to review again for JOSS.

@davidwoodburn - thanks for your submission.

Note that JOSS requires a section title "Statement of Need" in your paper, as shown in the example paper. In this case, for a general audience, you could talk a little about navigation algorithms and research into them.

Please feel free to make changes to your .md file, then use the command @editorialbot generate pdf to make a new PDF. editorialbot commands need to be the first entry in a new comment.

[danielskatz]

I also don't see any references to other (non-software) work in this field, which might also go into the Statement of Need section.

[danielskatz]

Please ping me when you've made changes - I'll pause this for now.
