 ### Fixed
 
-- antimeridian splitting in GreatCircle.Arc (From @copilot)
+- Antimeridian splitting in GreatCircle.Arc (from @thomas-hervey)
+
+### Changed
+
+- `GreatCircle.Arc()` now defaults to `npoints = 100` — calling `gc.Arc()` with no arguments produces a smooth 100-point arc instead of a 2-point stub
+- Antimeridian splitting now uses analytical bisection (binary search on `interpolate()`) instead of the GDAL-ported linear heuristic. This approach is more accurate, especially at high latitudes and low `npoints` values
+- `ArcOptions.offset` is now a no-op (kept for backwards compatibility); antimeridian handling is fully automatic
+
+### Removed
+
+- GDAL license file (`GDAL-LICENSE.md`). No GDAL-derived code remains in the codebase
+
+### Added
+
+- `scripts/benchmark.mjs` benchmarks bisection vs. prior linear approach across npoints and route types
+- `scripts/dump-fixtures.mjs` exports all test routes as GeoJSON for use in visual verification (such as [https://geojson.io](https://geojson.io) or the index.html demo page)

+## Visual Fixture Verification
+
+To inspect all test routes as great circle arcs on a map:
+
+```bash
+npm run build                            # dist/ must exist
+node scripts/dump-fixtures.mjs | pbcopy  # macOS: copy to clipboard
 ```
 
-All formats are tested in `test/build-output.test.js`.
+Then, paste the geojson output into a visualization tool to visually verify routes, such as [geojson.io](https://geojson.io).
+**Note:** route coordinates in the script are manually updated to keep in sync with `test/fixtures/routes.ts`.

 ### Dateline Crossing
 
-The library automatically handles routes that cross the international dateline. The `offset` option (default: 10) controls how close to the dateline a route must be before it gets split into multiple segments. For routes near the poles, you may need a higher offset value.
+Routes that cross the international dateline are automatically detected and split into a `MultiLineString` with exact `±180°` boundary points. No configuration is needed.
