Hello, I have two Point coordinates that I want to find out what the distance between them is. I saw that the OpenLayers.Geometry.Point class has a distanceTo function. This is what I tried....
var SWpoint = new OpenLayers.Geometry.Point(SWlng, SWlat); var NEpoint = new OpenLayers.Geometry.Point(NElng, NElat); var dist = SWpoint.distanceTo(NEpoint); alert(dist); The variable "dist" does seem to have a value but I do not know what it is. It returned value is not large enough to be miles or meters so I am not sure if I am using it incorrectly or this is not how I would get the distance between two geocoords. Thoughs?
