下面是this公式的c#实现

 public class DistanceAlgorithm
{
    const double PIx = 3.141592653589793;
    const double RADIO = 6378.16;

    /// <summary>
    /// This class cannot be instantiated.
    /// </summary>
    private DistanceAlgorithm() { }

    /// <summary>
    /// Convert degrees to Radians
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="x">Degrees</param>
    /// <returns>The equivalent in radians</returns>
    public static double Radians(double x)
    {
        return x * PIx / 180;
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Calculate the distance between two places.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="lon1"></param>
    /// <param name="lat1"></param>
    /// <param name="lon2"></param>
    /// <param name="lat2"></param>
    /// <returns></returns>
    public static double DistanceBetweenPlaces(
        double lon1,
        double lat1,
        double lon2,
        double lat2)
    {
        double dlon =  Radians(lon2 - lon1);
        double dlat =  Radians(lat2 - lat1);

        double a = (Math.Sin(dlat / 2) * Math.Sin(dlat / 2)) + Math.Cos(Radians(lat1)) * Math.Cos(Radians(lat2)) * (Math.Sin(dlon / 2) * Math.Sin(dlon / 2));
        double angle = 2 * Math.Atan2(Math.Sqrt(a), Math.Sqrt(1 - a));
        return (angle * RADIO) * 0.62137;//distance in miles
    }

}    

对于谷歌，你可以使用球面api, google.maps.geometry. sphere.computedistancebetween (latLngA, latLngB);

然而，如果球面投影或哈弗辛解的精度对你来说不够精确(例如，如果你靠近极点或计算更长的距离)，你应该使用不同的库。

关于这个主题的大部分信息我都是在维基百科上找到的。

要查看任何给定算法的精度是否足够，一个技巧是填充地球的最大和最小半径，并查看差异是否会给您的用例带来问题。更多细节可以在本文中找到

最后，谷歌api或haversine将毫无问题地满足大多数目的。

要在谷歌地图上计算距离，您可以使用方向API。这是最简单的方法之一。要从谷歌服务器获取数据，您可以使用Retrofit或Volley。两者都有各自的优势。看看下面的代码，我使用了改造来实现它:

private void build_retrofit_and_get_response(String type) {

    String url = "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/";

    Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
            .baseUrl(url)
            .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
            .build();

    RetrofitMaps service = retrofit.create(RetrofitMaps.class);

    Call<Example> call = service.getDistanceDuration("metric", origin.latitude + "," + origin.longitude,dest.latitude + "," + dest.longitude, type);

    call.enqueue(new Callback<Example>() {
        @Override
        public void onResponse(Response<Example> response, Retrofit retrofit) {

            try {
                //Remove previous line from map
                if (line != null) {
                    line.remove();
                }
                // This loop will go through all the results and add marker on each location.
                for (int i = 0; i < response.body().getRoutes().size(); i++) {
                    String distance = response.body().getRoutes().get(i).getLegs().get(i).getDistance().getText();
                    String time = response.body().getRoutes().get(i).getLegs().get(i).getDuration().getText();
                    ShowDistanceDuration.setText("Distance:" + distance + ", Duration:" + time);
                    String encodedString = response.body().getRoutes().get(0).getOverviewPolyline().getPoints();
                    List<LatLng> list = decodePoly(encodedString);
                    line = mMap.addPolyline(new PolylineOptions()
                                    .addAll(list)
                                    .width(20)
                                    .color(Color.RED)
                                    .geodesic(true)
                    );
                }
            } catch (Exception e) {
                Log.d("onResponse", "There is an error");
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }

        @Override
        public void onFailure(Throwable t) {
            Log.d("onFailure", t.toString());
        }
    });

}

上面是用于计算距离的函数build_retrofit_and_get_response的代码。下面是对应的改装界面:

package com.androidtutorialpoint.googlemapsdistancecalculator;


import com.androidtutorialpoint.googlemapsdistancecalculator.POJO.Example;

import retrofit.Call;
import retrofit.http.GET;
import retrofit.http.Query;

public interface RetrofitMaps {


/*
 * Retrofit get annotation with our URL
 * And our method that will return us details of student.
 */
@GET("api/directions/json?key=AIzaSyC22GfkHu9FdgT9SwdCWMwKX1a4aohGifM")
Call<Example> getDistanceDuration(@Query("units") String units, @Query("origin") String origin, @Query("destination") String destination, @Query("mode") String mode);

}

我希望这能解释你的问题。祝一切顺利:)

来源:谷歌地图距离计算器

//p1 and p2 are google.maps.LatLng(x,y) objects

function calcDistance(p1, p2) {
          var d = (google.maps.geometry.spherical.computeDistanceBetween(p1, p2) / 1000).toFixed(2);
          console.log(d);              
}

首先，你指的是整个路径的长度，还是你只想知道位移(直线距离)?我看没人指出距离和位移的区别。对于距离计算JSON/XML数据给出的每个路由点，至于位移，有一个内置的解决方案使用球面类

//calculates distance between two points in km's
function calcDistance(p1, p2) {
  return (google.maps.geometry.spherical.computeDistanceBetween(p1, p2) / 1000).toFixed(2);
}

  /**
   * Calculates the haversine distance between point A, and B.
   * @param {number[]} latlngA [lat, lng] point A
   * @param {number[]} latlngB [lat, lng] point B
   * @param {boolean} isMiles If we are using miles, else km.
   */
  function haversineDistance(latlngA, latlngB, isMiles) {
    const squared = x => x * x;
    const toRad = x => (x * Math.PI) / 180;
    const R = 6371; // Earth’s mean radius in km

    const dLat = toRad(latlngB[0] - latlngA[0]);
    const dLon = toRad(latlngB[1] - latlngA[1]);

    const dLatSin = squared(Math.sin(dLat / 2));
    const dLonSin = squared(Math.sin(dLon / 2));

    const a = dLatSin +
              (Math.cos(toRad(latlngA[0])) * Math.cos(toRad(latlngB[0])) * dLonSin);
    const c = 2 * Math.atan2(Math.sqrt(a), Math.sqrt(1 - a));
    let distance = R * c;

    if (isMiles) distance /= 1.609344;

    return distance;
  }

我在网上找到了一个版本，80%是正确的，但插入了错误的参数，在使用输入时不一致，这个版本完全解决了这个问题
