calcCos: Calculate Geodesic Distance - Cosine Method

In MGDrivE: Mosquito Gene Drive Explorer

Description

This function calculates geodesic distance using the cosine method.

Usage

calcCos(latLongs, r = 6378137)

Arguments

latLongs	Two column matrix of latitudes/longitudes
r	Earth radius. Default is WGS-84 radius

Examples

# two-column matrix with latitude/longitude, in degrees
latLong = cbind(runif(n = 5, min = 0, max = 90),
                runif(n = 5, min = 0, max = 180))

# cosine distance formula
distMat = calcCos(latLongs = latLong)
