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,

ORDER BY distance ASC

地球半径:6371000(单位:米)

简单的一个;)

SELECT * FROM `WAYPOINTS` W ORDER BY
ABS(ABS(W.`LATITUDE`-53.63) +
ABS(W.`LONGITUDE`-9.9)) ASC LIMIT 30;

把坐标换成你需要的坐标。这些值必须存储为double类型。这是一个工作中的MySQL 5。x的例子。

干杯

在极端情况下，这种方法会失败，但为了性能考虑，我跳过了三角函数，只是简单地计算对角线的平方。

以防你像我一样懒，这里有一个解决方案，由这个和其他关于SO的答案合并而成。

set @orig_lat=37.46; 
set @orig_long=-122.25; 
set @bounding_distance=1;

SELECT
*
,((ACOS(SIN(@orig_lat * PI() / 180) * SIN(`lat` * PI() / 180) + COS(@orig_lat * PI() / 180) * COS(`lat` * PI() / 180) * COS((@orig_long - `long`) * PI() / 180)) * 180 / PI()) * 60 * 1.1515) AS `distance` 
FROM `cities` 
WHERE
(
  `lat` BETWEEN (@orig_lat - @bounding_distance) AND (@orig_lat + @bounding_distance)
  AND `long` BETWEEN (@orig_long - @bounding_distance) AND (@orig_long + @bounding_distance)
)
ORDER BY `distance` ASC
limit 25;

SELECT latitude, longitude, SQRT(
    POW(69.1 * (latitude - [startlat]), 2) +
    POW(69.1 * ([startlng] - longitude) * COS(latitude / 57.3), 2)) AS distance
FROM TableName HAVING distance < 25 ORDER BY distance;

其中[starlat]和[startlng]是开始测量距离的位置。

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。
