Hi there I'am working on a route comparison tool for carpools.
The route comparison is based on 'steps' retrieved from google maps GDirection. These steps vary in length and i use the coordinates at the beginning of each "step". However, sometimes the distance of these steps is too long(ex. driving 30-40 km. on the freeway). Therefore i would like to calculate/find the coordinate located in between two given coordinates. Lets say one step starts at: 56.043185,9.922714 and ends at: 56.234287,9.864521 I would then like to calculate the point right in the middle of these coordinates. I use the haversine form to calculate the distance between coordinates, but im not sure whether or not this can be used for the same purpose. http://www.mpi.nl/world/persons/private ... versine.py I apologize if this thread has been posted the wrong place:) any help is greatly appreciated! kind regards.
