This problem exceeds feasibility of performance rapidly - a query only involving a few days already takes dozens of seconds. All tables are analyzed and pg_stats looks reasonable IMHO.

Is there a correlation between daterange and spacial_feature_id ?

Are the estimates good if you query on *only* daterange?  spacial_feature_id ?

Maybe what you need is:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/sql-createstatistics.html
CREATE STATISTICS stats (dependencies) ON daterange, spacial_feature_id FROM location_statistics;
ANALYZE location_statistics;
