Distance between geopoints

Question

I have a problem calculating the distance between two geopoints.

The geopoints are:

position1 = mapView.getProjection().fromPixels(
(int) e.getX(),
(         


        

Answer 1

You are taking wrong latitude and longitudes, please replace the following lines

Location loc = new Location("");                                

loc.setLatitude(position1.getLatitudeE6());

loc.setLongitude(position1.getLongitudeE6());

Location loc2 = new Location("");                               

loc.setLatitude(position2.getLatitudeE6());

loc.setLongitude(position2.getLongitudeE6());

with

Location loc = new Location("");                                

loc.setLatitude(position1.getLatitudeE6()/1E6);

loc.setLongitude(position1.getLongitudeE6()/1E6);

Location loc2 = new Location("");                               

loc.setLatitude(position2.getLatitudeE6()/1E6);

loc.setLongitude(position2.getLongitudeE6()/1E6);

and then once, you will get correct answer.
