我在R中做了一个自定义函数，使用R基本包中可用的函数来计算两个空间点之间的距离(km)。

custom_hav_dist <- function(lat1, lon1, lat2, lon2) {
R <- 6371
Radian_factor <- 0.0174533
lat_1 <- (90-lat1)*Radian_factor
lat_2 <- (90-lat2)*Radian_factor
diff_long <-(lon1-lon2)*Radian_factor

distance_in_km <- 6371*acos((cos(lat_1)*cos(lat_2))+ 
                 (sin(lat_1)*sin(lat_2)*cos(diff_long)))
rm(lat1, lon1, lat2, lon2)
return(distance_in_km)
}

样例输出

custom_hav_dist(50.31,19.08,54.14,19.39)
[1] 426.3987

PS:要计算以英里为单位的距离，请将函数R(6371)替换为3958.756(海里使用3440.065)。

function distance($lat1, $lon1, $lat2, $lon2) { 
    $pi80 = M_PI / 180; 
    $lat1 *= $pi80; $lon1 *= $pi80; $lat2 *= $pi80; $lon2 *= $pi80; 
    $dlat = $lat2 - $lat1; 
    $dlon = $lon2 - $lon1; 
    $a = sin($dlat / 2) * sin($dlat / 2) + cos($lat1) * cos($lat2) * sin($dlon / 2) * sin($dlon / 2);  
    $km = 6372.797 * 2 * atan2(sqrt($a), sqrt(1 - $a)); 
    return $km; 
}

如果你想要驾驶距离/路线(张贴在这里，因为这是谷歌上两点之间距离的第一个结果，但对大多数人来说，驾驶距离更有用)，你可以使用谷歌地图距离矩阵服务:

getDrivingDistanceBetweenTwoLatLong(origin, destination) {

 return new Observable(subscriber => {
  let service = new google.maps.DistanceMatrixService();
  service.getDistanceMatrix(
    {
      origins: [new google.maps.LatLng(origin.lat, origin.long)],
      destinations: [new google.maps.LatLng(destination.lat, destination.long)],
      travelMode: 'DRIVING'
    }, (response, status) => {
      if (status !== google.maps.DistanceMatrixStatus.OK) {
        console.log('Error:', status);
        subscriber.error({error: status, status: status});
      } else {
        console.log(response);
        try {
          let valueInMeters = response.rows[0].elements[0].distance.value;
          let valueInKms = valueInMeters / 1000;
          subscriber.next(valueInKms);
          subscriber.complete();
        }
       catch(error) {
        subscriber.error({error: error, status: status});
       }
      }
    });
});
}

下面是Erlang实现

lat_lng({Lat1, Lon1}=_Point1, {Lat2, Lon2}=_Point2) ->
  P = math:pi() / 180,
  R = 6371, % Radius of Earth in KM
  A = 0.5 - math:cos((Lat2 - Lat1) * P) / 2 +
    math:cos(Lat1 * P) * math:cos(Lat2 * P) * (1 - math:cos((Lon2 - Lon1) * P))/2,
  R * 2 * math:asin(math:sqrt(A)).

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;
}

下面是一个Scala实现:

  def calculateHaversineDistance(lat1: Double, lon1: Double, lat2: Double, lon2: Double): Double = {
    val long2 = lon2 * math.Pi / 180
    val lat2 = lat2 * math.Pi / 180
    val long1 = lon1 * math.Pi / 180
    val lat1 = lat1 * math.Pi / 180

    val dlon = long2 - long1
    val dlat = lat2 - lat1
    val a = math.pow(math.sin(dlat / 2), 2) + math.cos(lat1) * math.cos(lat2) * math.pow(math.sin(dlon / 2), 2)
    val c = 2 * math.atan2(Math.sqrt(a), math.sqrt(1 - a))
    val haversineDistance = 3961 * c // 3961 = radius of earth in miles
    haversineDistance
  }
