NuGet Package : DevExpress.Wpf.Map

Declaration

csharp
public static double CalculateDistance(
    GeoPoint p1,
    GeoPoint p2
)
vb
Public Shared Function CalculateDistance(
    p1 As GeoPoint,
    p2 As GeoPoint
) As Double

Parameters

Remarks

This CalculateDistanceoverload considers the Earth to be a reference ellipsoid (WGS 84) and calculates distance along an ellipsoidal surface.

The following example shows how to use the CalculateDistance method to compute the distance between two points:

csharp
double distance = GeoUtils.CalculateDistance(new GeoPoint(36.1, -115.1), new GeoPoint(34, -118.2));
vb
Dim distance As Double = GeoUtils.CalculateDistance(New GeoPoint(36.1, -115.1), New GeoPoint(34, -118.2))
