So I guess I have to use the default srid in both models. Right?
If I set the default srid, is the following code correct?
qs = Places.objects.filter(location__distance_lte=(pnt, D(km=500)))
or
qs = Places.objects.filter(location__distance_lte=(pnt, 500000)

Do you know where can I find an example? I suppose you mean
distance_sphere, but as I'm new to all this geographic stuff I have no
idea how to use it.
