Distance Calculation Formula
The distance between two points on Earth's surface can be calculated using the Haversine formula, which accounts for the curvature of the Earth:
a = sin²(Δφ/2) + cos φ1 ⋅ cos φ2 ⋅ sin²(Δλ/2)
c = 2 ⋅ atan2(√a, √(1−a))
d = R ⋅ c
Where:
- φ is latitude, λ is longitude
- R is Earth's radius (mean radius = 6,371 km)
- Δφ and Δλ are the differences in latitude and longitude between the two points
For driving and walking distances, we adjust the calculation to account for road networks and walking paths. Flying distances are calculated as straight-line distances between the two points.
