Calculate Geodesic Distance - Haversine Method

This function calculates geodesic distance using the Haversine method.

calcHaversine(latLongs, r = 6378137)

Arguments

latLongs

Two column matrix of latitudes/longitudes
r

Earth radius. Default is WGS-84 radius

Examples

# two-column matrix with latitude/longitude, in degrees
latLong = cbind(runif(n = 5, min = 0, max = 90),
                runif(n = 5, min = 0, max = 180))

# Haversine distance formula
distMat = calcHaversine(latLongs = latLong)
