下面是一个c#实现:

static class DistanceAlgorithm
{
    const double PIx = 3.141592653589793;
    const double RADIUS = 6378.16;

    /// <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 * RADIUS;
    }

}

这个链接可能对你有帮助，因为它详细介绍了使用哈弗辛公式来计算距离。

摘录:

这个脚本计算两点之间的大圆距离 也就是说，在地球表面上的最短距离-使用 “半正矢”公式。

function getDistanceFromLatLonInKm(lat1,lon1,lat2,lon2) {
  var R = 6371; // Radius of the earth in km
  var dLat = deg2rad(lat2-lat1);  // deg2rad below
  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; // Distance in km
  return d;
}

function deg2rad(deg) {
  return deg * (Math.PI/180)
}

非常感谢这一切。我在Objective-C iPhone应用程序中使用了以下代码:

const double PIx = 3.141592653589793;
const double RADIO = 6371; // Mean radius of Earth in Km

double convertToRadians(double val) {

   return val * PIx / 180;
}

-(double)kilometresBetweenPlace1:(CLLocationCoordinate2D) place1 andPlace2:(CLLocationCoordinate2D) place2 {

        double dlon = convertToRadians(place2.longitude - place1.longitude);
        double dlat = convertToRadians(place2.latitude - place1.latitude);

        double a = ( pow(sin(dlat / 2), 2) + cos(convertToRadians(place1.latitude))) * cos(convertToRadians(place2.latitude)) * pow(sin(dlon / 2), 2);
        double angle = 2 * asin(sqrt(a));

        return angle * RADIO;
}

纬度和经度是十进制的。我没有在asin()调用中使用min()，因为我使用的距离非常小，以至于它们不需要min()。

它给出了错误的答案，直到我传入弧度的值-现在它几乎与从苹果地图应用程序中获得的值相同:-)

额外的更新:

如果你使用的是iOS4或更高版本，那么苹果会提供一些方法来实现相同的功能:

-(double)kilometresBetweenPlace1:(CLLocationCoordinate2D) place1 andPlace2:(CLLocationCoordinate2D) place2 {

    MKMapPoint  start, finish;


    start = MKMapPointForCoordinate(place1);
    finish = MKMapPointForCoordinate(place2);

    return MKMetersBetweenMapPoints(start, finish) / 1000;
}

如果你正在使用python; PIP安装地质

from geopy.distance import geodesic


origin = (30.172705, 31.526725)  # (latitude, longitude) don't confuse
destination = (30.288281, 31.732326)

print(geodesic(origin, destination).meters)  # 23576.805481751613
print(geodesic(origin, destination).kilometers)  # 23.576805481751613
print(geodesic(origin, destination).miles)  # 14.64994773134371

下面是一个c#实现:

static class DistanceAlgorithm

    const double PIx = 3.141592653589793;
    const double RADIUS = 6378.16;

    /// <summary>

    {
        return x * PIx / 180;
    }

    /// <summary>

    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 * RADIUS;
    }

}

哈弗辛公式在大多数情况下都是很好的公式，其他答案已经包含了它所以我就不占用空间了。但重要的是要注意，无论使用什么公式(是的，不仅仅是一个)。因为可能的精度范围很大，以及所需的计算时间。公式的选择需要更多的思考，而不是简单的无脑答案。

这个帖子来自nasa的一个人，是我在讨论这些选项时发现的最好的一个

http://www.cs.nyu.edu/visual/home/proj/tiger/gisfaq.html

例如，如果您只是在100英里半径内按距离对行进行排序。地平公式比哈弗辛公式快得多。

HalfPi = 1.5707963;
R = 3956; /* the radius gives you the measurement unit*/

a = HalfPi - latoriginrad;
b = HalfPi - latdestrad;
u = a * a + b * b;
v = - 2 * a * b * cos(longdestrad - longoriginrad);
c = sqrt(abs(u + v));
return R * c;

注意这里只有一个余弦和一个平方根。在哈弗辛公式中有9个。
