I want to work out the distance between 2 latlon points.
The simple distance formula http://www.purplemath.com/modules/distform.htm is not correct because we are dealing with 2 different measures (lat and lon).
Is there a standard solution to this problem?
use
Haversine formula.see this link http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong.html
