Description
Calculate the distance between two points as great circle distance
on the globe
Usage
1
great_circle_dist(x1, x2)
Arguments
x1
coordinate pair 1, as list with $lat and $lon
x2
coordinate pair 2, as list with $lat and $lon
Details
Uses information from
http://janmatuschek.de/LatitudeLongitudeBoundingCoordinates, where
dist = arccos(sin(lat1) * sin(lat2) + cos(lat1) * cos(lat2) *
cos(lon1 - lon2)) * R
Value
The distance on the globe in kilometers.
Examples
1
2
great_circle_dist(list(lon = 0.3, lat = 40.91), list(lon = 1.3,
lat = 41.02))
