I have geocoded points in long, lat format, and I want to calculate the distance between them using R. This seems pretty straight forward, yet I can't find a function that will do it easily. I've been attempting to do it with the gdistance package, but it seems very convoluted and oriented to graphing, I just need a number. Something like distanceBetween(pointA,pointB) that returns a number.

For this divide the values of longitude and latitude of both the points by 180/pi. The value of pi is 22/7. The value of 180/pi is approximately 57.29577951. If we want to calculate the distance between two places in miles, use the value 3, 963, which is the radius of Earth.
type UseDistanceTypes = { from: { latitude: number; longitude: number }; to: { latitude: number; longitude: number }; }; const earthRadius = 6378137; const toRadius = (value: number): number => (value * Math. PI) / 180; export const useDistance = ({ from, to }: UseDistanceTypes): number => { const distance = Math.
Loading the geosphere package you can use a number of different functions
library(geosphere) distm(c(lon1, lat1), c(lon2, lat2), fun = distHaversine) Also:
distHaversine() distMeeus() distRhumb() distVincentyEllipsoid() distVincentySphere() ...
