latitude-longitude

Is there a formula to change a latitude and longitude into a single number?

问题 Can you tell me if there is a formula to change a latitude and longitude into a single number? I plan to use this for a database table in software that provides routing for deliveries. The table row would have that number as well as the postal address. The database table would be sorted in ascending numeric order so the software can figure out which address the truck would need to go to first, second etc. Please can you respond showing VB or VB.Net syntax so I can understand how it works?

FQL query for finding public event

痴心易碎 提交于 2019-12-06 05:15:13
I would like to execute an FQL query for retrieving all the public events in a specific area (using longitude,latitude and maximum distance or simply location name). Do you know if it's possible? Apparently, somebody is able to do it, somehow: http://elmcity.info/fb_events?location=tokyo It is possible indeed to receive events using location based "search" To do so you'll need the longitude and latitude coordinates of the location you want to search and a access_token with user_events permission (i think you could also use the public search) Here's an FQL example how can you get all the events

Using a C function in Objective-C (for iPhone)

'lo all. I am a self-described admitted noob in iPhone programming (having a much longer perl & web background -- 30 years)...but took the plunge last week and bought a couple of good books. After cramming and reading well over 1000 pages -- and understanding it pretty well, I am well on my way to a good first Native iPhone app. My problem is this: I do not know how to do a simple Geographic (lat/long) point-in-polygon routine in Objective-C. I have 2 ways of doing this. One in C (the first code example) and one in JavaScript (the second code example): // this is the poly.h file int pnpoly(int

Python code to calculate angle between three points (lat long coordinates)

随声附和 提交于 2019-12-06 01:00:56
问题 Can anybody suggest how to calculate angle between three points (lat long coordinates) A : (12.92473, 77.6183) B : (12.92512, 77.61923) C : (12.92541, 77.61985) 回答1: I see two main ways to solve your problem, assuming you want angle ABC (B is the vertex of the angle). Since your three points are close to each other (less than 0.0007° latitude and 0.002° longitude apart), we can approximate the earth as a plane and use two-dimensional vector calculations. A degree of longitude and of latitude

Interpolating data from one latitude-longitude grid onto a different one?

守給你的承諾、 提交于 2019-12-06 00:45:02
I have two data arrays that are on lat-lon grids. The first one, A, has the shape (89, 180). The second one, B, has the shape (94, 192). A's latitudes are in descending order from 88. to -88. & longitudes are in ascending order from 0. to 358. B's latitudes are in descending order from 88.54199982 to -88.54199982 & longitudes are in ascending order from 0. to 358.125. I want to regrid/interpolate B's data onto A's coordinate system so that I can get both arrays the same size and calculate the spatial correlation between them. (I can also regrid/interpolate A's data onto B's coordinate system

Is pyEphem 'sublat' and 'sublong' given in Geocentric or Geodetic?

戏子无情 提交于 2019-12-05 22:43:05
The documentation says that if pyEpehm is given a TLE and a time it will return the following. However, I'm having no luck converting the returned 'sublat' and 'sublon' to ECEF XYZ and back to LLA coordinates to verify. When I convert back the longitude is preserved but the latitude is off by about ~20 degrees for different tests. I am using functions that are verified with GPS ephemeris and I am very confident that the LLA to ECEF and back works for those parameters. Something else is going on here. Does anybody know if 'sublat' and 'sublon' are given in geocentric?? On artificial satellites,

Latitude / Longitude and meters

问题 I have a small algorithmic problem. I am developing an Android application. I get GPS coordinates. For example: latitude: 23.23907 , longitude: 50.45786 . So I get a point. I want to compute bounds details on this point plus or minus 5 meters. I.e.: [23.23907 - 5 meters ; 23.23907 + 5 meters] [50.45786 - 5 meters ; 50.45786 + 5 meters] How to make this calculation? Thank you very much! 回答1: The haversine formula can be simplified a great deal when you work in north-south and east-west

MySQL - Searching negative longitude values with BETWEEN

问题 I have found many similar posts and even tried to find out how to handle negative values within MySQL, but to no avail. I have a site that I'm using Google Maps on and as a performance enhancement I'm limiting the markers that are drawn on the map to those that are within the map boundaries. I would like to develop a query that will work with positive or negative latitude and longitude values. For the database: latitude FLOAT( 10, 6 ) longitude FLOAT( 10, 6 ) The query: SELECT * FROM `table`

Discrete Global Grid in R

问题 I have a dataset consisting of latitude-longitude pairs associated with some Z value (e.g. data regarding degree of plant vegetation coverage). I'd like to perform some analyses on the spatial distribution of this data. To do so, it will be necessary to bin proximal data points. I would like to do this with a Discrete Global Grid such as an Icosahedron Snyder Equal Area (ISEA) grid, or the grid produced by DGGRID. The key is that the latitude-longitude values of the data can be convertable
