In Australia, GPS-flown VOR or NDB approaches MUST be extracted from the GPS database. The database approach will therefore have the correct references for distances. It would never be approved for IFR use otherwise.
USA, likewise.
You can't just make it up as you go along (although some folks try to do this with portable GPS units)...'tain't legal.
