Calculate distance between latitude longitude pairs with Python
#!/usr/bin/env python
# Haversine formula example in Python
# Author: Wayne Dyck
import math
def distance(origin, destination):
lat1, lon1 = origin
lat2, lon2 = destination
radius = 6371 # km
dlat = math.radians(lat2-lat1)
dlon = math.radians(lon2-lon1)
a = math.sin(dlat/2) * math.sin(dlat/2) + math.cos(math.radians(lat1)) \
* math.cos(math.radians(lat2)) * math.sin(dlon/2) * math.sin(dlon/2)
c = 2 * math.atan2(math.sqrt(a), math.sqrt(1-a))
d = radius * c
return d
