Calculate distance between two points in google maps V3

Question

How do you calculate the distance between two markers in Google maps V3? (Similar to the distanceFrom function inV2.)

Thanks..

Answer 1

There actually seems to be a method in GMap3. It's a static method of the google.maps.geometry.spherical namespace.

It takes as arguments two LatLng objects and will utilize a default Earth radius of 6378137 meters, although the default radius can be overridden with a custom value if necessary.

Make sure you include:

in your head section.

The call will be:

google.maps.geometry.spherical.computeDistanceBetween (latLngA, latLngB);
