PHP版本:

(删除所有deg2rad()如果您的坐标已经是弧度。)

$R = 6371; // km
$dLat = deg2rad($lat2-$lat1);
$dLon = deg2rad($lon2-$lon1);
$lat1 = deg2rad($lat1);
$lat2 = deg2rad($lat2);

$a = sin($dLat/2) * sin($dLat/2) +
     sin($dLon/2) * sin($dLon/2) * cos($lat1) * cos($lat2); 

$c = 2 * atan2(sqrt($a), sqrt(1-$a)); 
$d = $R * $c;

基于Roman Makarov对这个线程的回复的Java版本的Haversine算法

public class HaversineAlgorithm {

    static final double _eQuatorialEarthRadius = 6378.1370D;
    static final double _d2r = (Math.PI / 180D);

    public static int HaversineInM(double lat1, double long1, double lat2, double long2) {
        return (int) (1000D * HaversineInKM(lat1, long1, lat2, long2));
    }

    public static double HaversineInKM(double lat1, double long1, double lat2, double long2) {
        double dlong = (long2 - long1) * _d2r;
        double dlat = (lat2 - lat1) * _d2r;
        double a = Math.pow(Math.sin(dlat / 2D), 2D) + Math.cos(lat1 * _d2r) * Math.cos(lat2 * _d2r)
                * Math.pow(Math.sin(dlong / 2D), 2D);
        double c = 2D * Math.atan2(Math.sqrt(a), Math.sqrt(1D - a));
        double d = _eQuatorialEarthRadius * c;

        return d;
    }

}

对于任何寻找Delphi/Pascal版本的人:

function GreatCircleDistance(const Lat1, Long1, Lat2, Long2: Double): Double;
var
  Lat1Rad, Long1Rad, Lat2Rad, Long2Rad: Double;
const
  EARTH_RADIUS_KM = 6378;
begin
  Lat1Rad  := DegToRad(Lat1);
  Long1Rad := DegToRad(Long1);
  Lat2Rad  := DegToRad(Lat2);
  Long2Rad := DegToRad(Long2);
  Result   := EARTH_RADIUS_KM * ArcCos(Cos(Lat1Rad) * Cos(Lat2Rad) * Cos(Long1Rad - Long2Rad) + Sin(Lat1Rad) * Sin(Lat2Rad));
end;

我对这个代码没有任何功劳，我最初是在一个公共论坛上发现Gary William发布的。

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。

我把上面的答案用在Scala程序中

import java.lang.Math.{atan2, cos, sin, sqrt}

def latLonDistance(lat1: Double, lon1: Double)(lat2: Double, lon2: Double): Double = {
    val earthRadiusKm = 6371
    val dLat = (lat2 - lat1).toRadians
    val dLon = (lon2 - lon1).toRadians
    val latRad1 = lat1.toRadians
    val latRad2 = lat2.toRadians

    val a = sin(dLat / 2) * sin(dLat / 2) + sin(dLon / 2) * sin(dLon / 2) * cos(latRad1) * cos(latRad2)
    val c = 2 * atan2(sqrt(a), sqrt(1 - a))
    earthRadiusKm * c
}

我对函数进行了压缩，以便能够轻松地生成具有两个固定位置之一的函数，并且只需要一对lat/lon来生成距离。

Scala版本

  def deg2rad(deg: Double) = deg * Math.PI / 180.0

  def rad2deg(rad: Double) = rad / Math.PI * 180.0

  def getDistanceMeters(lat1: Double, lon1: Double, lat2: Double, lon2: Double) = {
    val theta = lon1 - lon2
    val dist = Math.sin(deg2rad(lat1)) * Math.sin(deg2rad(lat2)) + Math.cos(deg2rad(lat1)) *
      Math.cos(deg2rad(lat2)) * Math.cos(deg2rad(theta))
    Math.abs(
      Math.round(
        rad2deg(Math.acos(dist)) * 60 * 1.1515 * 1.609344 * 1000)
    )
  }
