calculating the distance between two latitude longitude points code example
Example: distance between two coordinates latitude longitude formula
function getDistanceFromLatLonInKm(lat1,lon1,lat2,lon2) {
var R = 6371;
var dLat = deg2rad(lat2-lat1);
var dLon = deg2rad(lon2-lon1);
var a =
Math.sin(dLat/2) * Math.sin(dLat/2) +
Math.cos(deg2rad(lat1)) * Math.cos(deg2rad(lat2)) *
Math.sin(dLon/2) * Math.sin(dLon/2)
;
var c = 2 * Math.atan2(Math.sqrt(a), Math.sqrt(1-a));
var d = R * c;
return d;
}
function deg2rad(deg) {
return deg * (Math.PI/180)
}
