这取决于你需要它有多准确。如果你需要精确到毫米的精度，最好看看使用椭球的算法，而不是球体，比如Vincenty的算法。

飞镖版本

Haversine Algorithm。

import 'dart:math';

class GeoUtils {

  static double _degreesToRadians(degrees) {
    return degrees * pi / 180;
  }

  static double distanceInKmBetweenEarthCoordinates(lat1, lon1, lat2, lon2) {
    var earthRadiusKm = 6371;

    var dLat = _degreesToRadians(lat2-lat1);
    var dLon = _degreesToRadians(lon2-lon1);

    lat1 = _degreesToRadians(lat1);
    lat2 = _degreesToRadians(lat2);

    var a = sin(dLat/2) * sin(dLat/2) +
        sin(dLon/2) * sin(dLon/2) * cos(lat1) * cos(lat2);
    var c = 2 * atan2(sqrt(a), sqrt(1-a));
    return earthRadiusKm * c;
  }
}

我猜你想让它沿着地球的曲率运动。你的两点和地心在一个平面上。地球的中心是这个平面上的圆心，这两个点(大致)在这个圆的周长上。由此你可以通过求一点到另一点的角度来计算距离。

如果点的高度不一样，或者如果你需要考虑地球不是一个完美的球体，这就有点困难了。

下面是Kotlin的一个变种:

import kotlin.math.*

class HaversineAlgorithm {

    companion object {
        private const val MEAN_EARTH_RADIUS = 6371.008
        private const val D2R = Math.PI / 180.0
    }

    private fun haversineInKm(lat1: Double, lon1: Double, lat2: Double, lon2: Double): Double {
        val lonDiff = (lon2 - lon1) * D2R
        val latDiff = (lat2 - lat1) * D2R
        val latSin = sin(latDiff / 2.0)
        val lonSin = sin(lonDiff / 2.0)
        val a = latSin * latSin + (cos(lat1 * D2R) * cos(lat2 * D2R) * lonSin * lonSin)
        val c = 2.0 * atan2(sqrt(a), sqrt(1.0 - a))
        return MEAN_EARTH_RADIUS * c
    }
}

这是“Henry Vilinskiy”为MySQL和km改编的版本:

CREATE FUNCTION `CalculateDistanceInKm`(
  fromLatitude float,
  fromLongitude float,
  toLatitude float, 
  toLongitude float
) RETURNS float
BEGIN
  declare distance float;

  select 
    6367 * ACOS(
            round(
              COS(RADIANS(90-fromLatitude)) *
                COS(RADIANS(90-toLatitude)) +
                SIN(RADIANS(90-fromLatitude)) *
                SIN(RADIANS(90-toLatitude)) *
                COS(RADIANS(fromLongitude-toLongitude))
              ,15)
            )
    into distance;

  return  round(distance,3);
END;

这是我在Elixir中的实现
