calc_dist(source_latitude_in_deg, source_longitude_in_deg, receiver_latitude_in_deg, receiver_longitude_in_deg, radius_of_planet_in_km, flattening_of_planet)[source]

Given the source and receiver location, calculate distance.

Parameters
  • source_latitude_in_deg (float) – Source location latitude in degrees

  • source_longitude_in_deg (float) – Source location longitude in degrees

  • receiver_latitude_in_deg (float) – Receiver location latitude in degrees

  • receiver_longitude_in_deg (float) – Receiver location longitude in degrees

  • radius_of_planet_in_km (float) – Radius of the planet in km

  • flattening_of_planet – Flattening of planet (0 for a sphere)

Returns

distance_in_deg

Return type

float
