听起来你应该只使用PostGIS、SpatialLite、SQLServer2008或Oracle Spatial。它们都可以用空间SQL为您回答这个问题。

你要找的是哈弗辛公式。看这里。

还有其他的，但这是最常被引用的。

如果您正在寻找更健壮的东西，则可能需要考虑数据库的GIS功能。它们能够做一些很酷的事情，比如告诉你一个点(城市)是否出现在给定的多边形(区域、国家、大陆)中。

查找离我最近的用户:

距离(米)

根据文森特提的公式

i有用户表:

+----+-----------------------+---------+--------------+---------------+
| id | email                 | name    | location_lat | location_long |
+----+-----------------------+---------+--------------+---------------+
| 13 | xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.com | Isaac   | 17.2675625   | -97.6802361   |
| 14 | xxxx@xxxxxxx.com.mx   | Monse   | 19.392702    | -99.172596    |
+----+-----------------------+---------+--------------+---------------+

sql:

-- my location:  lat   19.391124   -99.165660
SELECT 
(ATAN(
    SQRT(
        POW(COS(RADIANS(users.location_lat)) * SIN(RADIANS(users.location_long) - RADIANS(-99.165660)), 2) +
        POW(COS(RADIANS(19.391124)) * SIN(RADIANS(users.location_lat)) - 
       SIN(RADIANS(19.391124)) * cos(RADIANS(users.location_lat)) * cos(RADIANS(users.location_long) - RADIANS(-99.165660)), 2)
    )
    ,
    SIN(RADIANS(19.391124)) * 
    SIN(RADIANS(users.location_lat)) + 
    COS(RADIANS(19.391124)) * 
    COS(RADIANS(users.location_lat)) * 
    COS(RADIANS(users.location_long) - RADIANS(-99.165660))
 ) * 6371000) as distance,
users.id
FROM users
ORDER BY distance ASC

地球半径:6371000(单位:米)

听起来就像你想在距离上做一个最近邻居搜索。据我所知，SQL不支持这样的任何东西，您需要使用另一种数据结构，如r树或kd树。

simpledb.execSQL("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS " + tablename + "(id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY   AUTOINCREMENT,lat double,lng double,address varchar)");
            simpledb.execSQL("insert into '" + tablename + "'(lat,lng,address)values('22.2891001','70.780154','craftbox');");
            simpledb.execSQL("insert into '" + tablename + "'(lat,lng,address)values('22.2901396','70.7782428','kotecha');");//22.2904718 //70.7783906
            simpledb.execSQL("insert into '" + tablename + "'(lat,lng,address)values('22.2863155','70.772108','kkv Hall');");
            simpledb.execSQL("insert into '" + tablename + "'(lat,lng,address)values('22.275993','70.778076','nana mava');");
            simpledb.execSQL("insert into '" + tablename + "'(lat,lng,address)values('22.2667148','70.7609386','Govani boys hostal');");


    double curentlat=22.2667258;  //22.2677258
    double curentlong=70.76096826;//70.76096826

    double curentlat1=curentlat+0.0010000;
    double curentlat2=curentlat-0.0010000;

    double curentlong1=curentlong+0.0010000;
    double curentlong2=curentlong-0.0010000;

    try{

        Cursor c=simpledb.rawQuery("select * from '"+tablename+"' where (lat BETWEEN '"+curentlat2+"' and '"+curentlat1+"') or (lng BETWEEN         '"+curentlong2+"' and '"+curentlong1+"')",null);

        Log.d("SQL ", c.toString());
        if(c.getCount()>0)
        {
            while (c.moveToNext())
            {
                double d=c.getDouble(1);
                double d1=c.getDouble(2);

            }
        }
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

根据文章Geo-Distance-Search-with-MySQL检查以下代码:

例如:找到半径10英里内离我目前位置最近的10家酒店。

#Please notice that (lat,lng) values mustn't be negatives to perform all calculations

set @my_lat=34.6087674878572; 
set @my_lng=58.3783670308302;
set @dist=10; #10 miles radius

SELECT dest.id, dest.lat, dest.lng,  3956 * 2 * ASIN(SQRT(POWER(SIN((@my_lat -abs(dest.lat)) * pi()/180 / 2),2) + COS(@my_lat * pi()/180 ) * COS(abs(dest.lat) *  pi()/180) * POWER(SIN((@my_lng - abs(dest.lng)) *  pi()/180 / 2), 2))
) as distance
FROM hotel as dest
having distance < @dist
ORDER BY distance limit 10;

#Also notice that distance are expressed in terms of radius.
