Get the distance between two lat-long points

distance.js

// Option 1
function distance(lat1, lon1, lat2, lon2, unit) {
	var radlat1 = Math.PI * lat1/180
	var radlat2 = Math.PI * lat2/180
	var radlon1 = Math.PI * lon1/180
	var radlon2 = Math.PI * lon2/180
	var theta = lon1-lon2
	var radtheta = Math.PI * theta/180
	var dist = Math.sin(radlat1) * Math.sin(radlat2) + Math.cos(radlat1) * Math.cos(radlat2) * Math.cos(radtheta);
	dist = Math.acos(dist)
	dist = dist * 180/Math.PI
	dist = dist * 60 * 1.1515
	if (unit=="K") { dist = dist * 1.609344 }
	if (unit=="N") { dist = dist * 0.8684 }
	return dist
}

// Option 2
function getDistanceFromLatLonInKm(lat1,lon1,lat2,lon2) {
  var R = 6371; // Radius of the earth in km
  var dLat = deg2rad(lat2-lat1);  // deg2rad below
  var dLon = deg2rad(lon2-lon1); 
  var a = 
    Math.sin(dLat/2) * Math.sin(dLat/2) +
    Math.cos(deg2rad(lat1)) * Math.cos(deg2rad(lat2)) * 
    Math.sin(dLon/2) * Math.sin(dLon/2)
    ; 
  var c = 2 * Math.atan2(Math.sqrt(a), Math.sqrt(1-a)); 
  var d = R * c; // Distance in km
  return d;
}

function deg2rad(deg) {
  return deg * (Math.PI/180)
