Till now, I have inserted all the sets of latitude and longitude in my database after every 5 sec from the path I have travelled.
Now after reaching the destination I have to calculate the distance from the sets of Latitude, longitude. It's not about calculating the travelling distance between two points but to get the total distance travelled from set of lat,long in my database .
I have thought a way of calculating the total distance by getting the distance between the two points
and add them up at last
Is there any better solution than this? please suggest and help
Already read this SO post but not getting how I will get the total distance by using the Google Maps Distance Matrix API
///////service to insert coordinates into the database.
private class MyReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context arg0, Intent arg1) {
String name = arg1.getAction();
if (name.equalsIgnoreCase("Location_Changed")) {
db.insertlatlong(new Latilongi(arg1.getStringExtra("latitude"),
arg1.getStringExtra("longitude"),currentDateandTime));
} else if (arg1.getAction().matches("android.location.PROVIDERS_CHANGED")) {
Toast.makeText(MapActivity.this, "in android.location.PROVIDERS_CHANGED",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
}
you can use the following method that will give you acurate result
public double CalculationByDistance(LatLng StartP, LatLng EndP) {
int Radius = 6371;// radius of earth in Km
double lat1 = StartP.latitude;
double lat2 = EndP.latitude;
double lon1 = StartP.longitude;
double lon2 = EndP.longitude;
double dLat = Math.toRadians(lat2 - lat1);
double dLon = Math.toRadians(lon2 - lon1);
double a = Math.sin(dLat / 2) * Math.sin(dLat / 2)
+ Math.cos(Math.toRadians(lat1))
* Math.cos(Math.toRadians(lat2)) * Math.sin(dLon / 2)
* Math.sin(dLon / 2);
double c = 2 * Math.asin(Math.sqrt(a));
double valueResult = Radius * c;
double km = valueResult / 1;
DecimalFormat newFormat = new DecimalFormat("####");
int kmInDec = Integer.valueOf(newFormat.format(km));
double meter = valueResult % 1000;
int meterInDec = Integer.valueOf(newFormat.format(meter));
Log.i("Radius Value", "" + valueResult + " KM " + kmInDec
+ " Meter " + meterInDec);
return Radius * c;
}
try this one
private double distance(double lat1, double lon1, double lat2, double lon2, String unit) {
double theta = lon1 - lon2;
double dist = Math.sin(deg2rad(lat1)) * Math.sin(deg2rad(lat2)) + Math.cos(deg2rad(lat1)) * Math.cos(deg2rad(lat2)) * Math.cos(deg2rad(theta));
dist = Math.acos(dist);
dist = rad2deg(dist);
dist = dist * 60 * 1.1515;
if (unit == "K") {
dist = dist * 1.609344;
} else if (unit == "N") {
dist = dist * 0.8684;
}
return (dist);
}
/*:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::*/
/*:: This function converts decimal degrees to radians :*/

private static double deg2rad(double deg) {
return (deg * Math.PI / 180.0);
}
You can insert only distance between two co-ordinates and lastly sum up all distances you had in database. Distance achieve like below.
float distanceInMeters = lastLocation.distanceTo(myLocation);
where "lastLocation" and "myLocation" are of Location object.
If you dont have Location object than you can try this.
Location lastLocation = new Location("");
lastLocation.setLatitude(latitude);
lastLocation.setLongitude(longitude);
Location myLocation = new Location("");
myLocation.setLatitude(otherlatitude);
myLocation.setLongitude(otherlongitude);
float distanceInMeters = lastLocation.distanceTo(myLocation);

I'm working on Google Maps directions API.
I need to calculate the distance traveled between two points.
If the starting and ending point is same how can we calculate the distance traveled?
Can anyone help me or give some suggestions regarding this?
Try this code
public double Distance(LatLng StartP, LatLng EndP) {
int Radius = 6371;// radius of earth in Km
double lat1 = StartP.latitude;
double lat2 = EndP.latitude;
double lon1 = StartP.longitude;
double lon2 = EndP.longitude;
double dLat = Math.toRadians(lat2 - lat1);
double dLon = Math.toRadians(lon2 - lon1);
double a = Math.sin(dLat / 2) * Math.sin(dLat / 2)
+ Math.cos(Math.toRadians(lat1))
* Math.cos(Math.toRadians(lat2)) * Math.sin(dLon / 2)
* Math.sin(dLon / 2);
double c = 2 * Math.asin(Math.sqrt(a));
double valueResult = Radius * c;
double km = valueResult / 1;
DecimalFormat newFormat = new DecimalFormat("####");
int kmInDec = Integer.valueOf(newFormat.format(km));
double meter = valueResult % 1000;
int meterInDec = Integer.valueOf(newFormat.format(meter));
Log.i("Radius Value", "" + valueResult + " KM " + kmInDec
+ " Meter " + meterInDec);
return Radius * c;
}
NOTE: I DO NOT need to monitor the user location continuously, just perform the check once off on a button click
I have a Set of Latitude and Longitude, and need to check if the user is within given distance of that point, how can I do it? I checked out Geofencing, but it works like a service, while I need to perform the check once in the main thread
just check with it.
for a location having latitude and longitude set boundaries with the below code:
public LatLngBounds getLocationBounds(LatLng sourceLocation, double distance)
{
LatLng southwest = SphericalUtil.computeOffset(sourceLocation, distance, 225);
LatLng northeast = SphericalUtil.computeOffset(sourceLocation, distance, 45);
return new LatLngBounds(southwest, northeast);
}
This is the method used to calculate the distance between two points:
public double CalculationByDistance(LatLng StartP, LatLng EndP) {
int Radius = 6371;// radius of earth in Km
double lat1 = StartP.latitude;
double lat2 = EndP.latitude;
double lon1 = StartP.longitude;
double lon2 = EndP.longitude;
double dLat = Math.toRadians(lat2 - lat1);
double dLon = Math.toRadians(lon2 - lon1);
double a = Math.sin(dLat / 2) * Math.sin(dLat / 2)
+ Math.cos(Math.toRadians(lat1))
* Math.cos(Math.toRadians(lat2)) * Math.sin(dLon / 2)
* Math.sin(dLon / 2);
double c = 2 * Math.asin(Math.sqrt(a));
double valueResult = Radius * c;
double km = valueResult / 1;
DecimalFormat newFormat = new DecimalFormat("####");
int kmInDec = Integer.valueOf(newFormat.format(km));
double meter = valueResult % 1000;
int meterInDec = Integer.valueOf(newFormat.format(meter));
Log.i("Radius Value", "" + valueResult + " KM " + kmInDec
+ " Meter " + meterInDec);
return Radius * c;
}

Please try to see if your question has been answered before asking in future.
In My app,i am using map and want to get the distance between from one place to another place by the help of Location. and i am getting location of every point when change the location.
give source and destination lat long and calculate distance in km.
public static double getDistance(double lat1, double lon1, double lat2, double lon2) {
int R = 6371; // Radius of the earth in km
double dLat = deg2rad(lat2 - lat1); // deg2rad below
double dLon = deg2rad(lon2 - lon1);
double a =
Math.sin(dLat / 2) * Math.sin(dLat / 2) +
Math.cos(deg2rad(lat1)) * Math.cos(deg2rad(lat2)) *
Math.sin(dLon / 2) * Math.sin(dLon / 2);
double c = 2 * Math.atan2(Math.sqrt(a), Math.sqrt(1 - a));
double d = R * c; // Distance in km
return d;

I'm not really good with mathematics but I need to calculate the distance of two different locations of the markers. Something like this:
public double CalculationByDistance(double initialLat, double initialLong, double finalLat, double finalLong){
return distance;
}
Or is there any alternative ways that I can calculate the distance of two markers, also I tried to google for answers.. but couldn't find any.
Reference:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haversine_formula
Comments are appreciated :) Thanks!!
Try this, much simpler than Haversine!
Location me = new Location("");
Location dest = new Location("");
me.setLatitude(myLat);
me.setLongitude(myLong);
dest.setLatitude(destLat);
dest.setLongitude(destLong);
float dist = me.distanceTo(dest);
If you want to stick with Haversine, something like this:
public double CalculationByDistance(double initialLat, double initialLong,
double finalLat, double finalLong){
int R = 6371; // km (Earth radius)
double dLat = toRadians(finalLat-initialLat);
double dLon = toRadians(finalLong-initialLong);
initialLat = toRadians(initialLat);
finalLat = toRadians(finalLat);
double a = Math.sin(dLat/2) * Math.sin(dLat/2) +
Math.sin(dLon/2) * Math.sin(dLon/2) * Math.cos(initialLat) * Math.cos(finalLat);
double c = 2 * Math.atan2(Math.sqrt(a), Math.sqrt(1-a));
return R * c;
}
public double toRadians(double deg) {
return deg * (Math.PI/180);
}
Also, you need to create a method toRadians() that convert values from degrees to radians, which is quite easy.
Hope it helps!
From your wikipedia link, applying the formula directly you can do the following:
public double CalculationByDistance(double initialLat, double initialLong, double finalLat, double finalLong){
/*PRE: All the input values are in radians!*/
double latDiff = finalLat - initialLat;
double longDiff = finalLong - initialLong;
double earthRadius = 6371; //In Km if you want the distance in km
double distance = 2*earthRadius*Math.asin(Math.sqrt(Math.pow(Math.sin(latDiff/2.0),2)+Math.cos(initialLat)*Math.cos(finalLat)*Math.pow(Math.sin(longDiff/2),2)));
return distance;
}
Use the below method for calculating the distance of two different locations.
public double getKilometers(double lat1, double long1, double lat2, double long2) {
double PI_RAD = Math.PI / 180.0;
double phi1 = lat1 * PI_RAD;
double phi2 = lat2 * PI_RAD;
double lam1 = long1 * PI_RAD;
double lam2 = long2 * PI_RAD;
return 6371.01 * acos(sin(phi1) * sin(phi2) + cos(phi1) * cos(phi2) * cos(lam2 - lam1));
}
try this
/**

distance = locationA.distanceTo(locationB);
the above code is not working and i am getting 0.0 Km as distance?
Also in the constructor of the location class, what does the string provider mean.
In the above code i am using PointA and PointB as the providers.
why is the above code not working?
thank you in advance.

Just a quick snippet since I didn't see a complete and simple solution with GeoPoints above:
public float getDistanceInMiles(GeoPoint p1, GeoPoint p2) {
double lat1 = ((double)p1.getLatitudeE6()) / 1e6;
double lng1 = ((double)p1.getLongitudeE6()) / 1e6;
double lat2 = ((double)p2.getLatitudeE6()) / 1e6;
double lng2 = ((double)p2.getLongitudeE6()) / 1e6;
float [] dist = new float[1];
Location.distanceBetween(lat1, lng1, lat2, lng2, dist);
return dist[0] * 0.000621371192f;
}
If you want meters, just return dist[0] directly.
Try Location.distanceBetween(..)
Update:
If you are getting lat/lon from GeoPoint then they are in microdegrees. You must multiply by 1e6.
As stated above, the Location Class is the way to go. Here is the code I have used :
Location locationA = new Location("point A");
locationA.setLatitude(pointA.getLatitudeE6() / 1E6);
locationA.setLongitude(pointA.getLongitudeE6() / 1E6);
Location locationB = new Location("point B");
locationB.setLatitude(pointB.getLatitudeE6() / 1E6);
locationB.setLongitude(pointB.getLongitudeE6() / 1E6);
double distance = locationA.distanceTo(locationB);
In this example, both pointA and pointB are instances of the GeoPoint class.
This is not an answer, but note the signature for the Location constructor is Location(String provider).
i.e. the String you pass to the constructor should be one of LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER or LocationManager.PASSIVE_PROVIDER, not "point A" and "point B".
An alternative way to accomplish the above,
public class Distance {
public static double distance(double lat1, double lon1, double lat2, double lon2) {
double theta = lon1 - lon2;
double dist = Math.sin(deg2rad(lat1)) * Math.sin(deg2rad(lat2))
+ Math.cos(deg2rad(lat1)) * Math.cos(deg2rad(lat2))
* Math.cos(deg2rad(theta));
dist = Math.acos(dist);
dist = rad2deg(dist);
dist = dist * 60 * 1.1515;
//if (unit == "K") {
// dist = dist * 1.609344;
// else if (unit == "N") {
//dist = dist * 0.8684;
//}
return (dist);
}

double lat2 = latitude2 * deg2radians;
double lon1 = longitude1 * deg2radians;

// Williams gives two formulae;
// this is the more accurate for close distances.
// In practice, the two differed only in the 8th or 9th place, for
// separations as small as 1 degree.
double radd = 2 * Math.asin(Math.sqrt(Math.pow(Math.sin((lat1 - lat2) / 2),
2.0)
+ Math.cos(lat1)
* Math.cos(lat2)
* Math.pow(Math.sin((lon1 - lon2) / 2), 2.0)));
return radd;
