Try to implement "Vincenty's formulae". It's very easy and much more accurate than "Great Circle": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vincenty's_formulae Perhaps I can give it a try. Did something equal in the past, but without a GUI :) "Great Circle" and "Vincenty" work with any ellipsoid. Projecting the current CRS to WGS84 first might be faulty. To get more accurate results, it might be better to use the current ellipsoid. _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
