How to check if a certain coordinates fall to another coordinates radius using PHP only

Question

I have seen so many functions but it happens to work only for MySQL or Postgresql. I want the equivalent logic for PHP. I\'m doing some comparisons, like I have this data th

Answer 1

This should help,

$lat_origin = 56.130366;
$long_origin = -106.34677099999;

$lat_dest = 57.223366;
$long_dest = -106.34675644699;

$radius      = 3958;      # Earth's radius (miles, convert to meters)
$deg_per_rad = 57.29578;  # Number of degrees/radian (for conversion)

$distance = ($radius * pi() * sqrt(
            ($lat_origin - $lat_dest)
            * ($lat_origin - $lat_dest)
            + cos($lat_origin / $deg_per_rad)  # Convert these to
            * cos($lat_dest / $deg_per_rad)    # radians for cos()
            * ($long_origin - $long_dest)
            * ($long_origin - $long_dest)
    ) / 180);
