How to calculate the latlng of a point a certain distance away from another?

To dr开发者_C百科aw a circle on map I have a center GLatLng (A) and a radius (r) in meters.

Here's a diagram:

           -----------
        --/           \--
      -/                 \-
     /                     \
    /                       \
   /                   r     \
   |            *-------------*
   \             A           / B
    \                       /
     \                     /
      -\                 /-
        --\           /--
           -----------

How to calculate the GLatLng at position B? Assuming that r is parallel to the equator.

Getting the radius when A and B is given is trivial using the GLatLng.distanceFrom() method - but doing it the other way around not so. Seems that I need to do some heavier math.


We will need a method that returns the destination point when given a bearing and the distance travelled from a source point. Luckily, there is a very good JavaScript implementation by Chris Veness at Calculate distance, bearing and more between Latitude/Longitude points.

The following has been adapted to work with the google.maps.LatLng class:

Number.prototype.toRad = function() {
   return this * Math.PI / 180;
}

Number.prototype.toDeg = function() {
   return this * 180 / Math.PI;
}

google.maps.LatLng.prototype.destinationPoint = function(brng, dist) {
   dist = dist / 6371;  
   brng = brng.toRad();  

   var lat1 = this.lat().toRad(), lon1 = this.lng().toRad();

   var lat2 = Math.asin(Math.sin(lat1) * Math.cos(dist) + 
                        Math.cos(lat1) * Math.sin(dist) * Math.cos(brng));

   var lon2 = lon1 + Math.atan2(Math.sin(brng) * Math.sin(dist) *
                                Math.cos(lat1), 
                                Math.cos(dist) - Math.sin(lat1) *
                                Math.sin(lat2));

   if (isNaN(lat2) || isNaN(lon2)) return null;

   return new google.maps.LatLng(lat2.toDeg(), lon2.toDeg());
}

You would simply use it as follows:

var pointA = new google.maps.LatLng(25.48, -71.26); 
var radiusInKm = 10;

var pointB = pointA.destinationPoint(90, radiusInKm);

Here is a complete example using Google Maps API v3:

UPDATE:

In reply to Paul's comment below, this is what happens when the circle wraps around one of the poles.

Plotting pointA near the north pole, with a radius of 1,000km:

  var pointA = new google.maps.LatLng(85, 0);   // Close to north pole
  var radius = 1000;                            // 1000km

Screenshot for pointA.destinationPoint(90, radius):

To calculate a lat,long point at a given bearing and distance from another you can use google´s JavaScript implementation:

var pointA = new google.maps.LatLng(25.48, -71.26); 
var distance = 10; // 10 metres
var bearing = 90; // 90 degrees
var pointB = google.maps.geometry.spherical.computeOffset(pointA, distance, bearing);

See https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/reference#spherical For documentation


If you are after the distance between 2 lat/lng points across the earths surface then you can find the javascript here:

http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong-vincenty.html

This is the same formula used in android API at android.location.Location::distanceTo

You can easily convert the code from javascript to java.

If you want to calculate the destination point given the start point, bearing and distance, then you need this method:

http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong-vincenty-direct.html

Here are the formulae in java:

public class LatLngUtils {

  /**
   * @param lat1
   *          Initial latitude
   * @param lon1
   *          Initial longitude
   * @param lat2
   *          destination latitude
   * @param lon2
   *          destination longitude
   * @param results
   *          To be populated with the distance, initial bearing and final
   *          bearing

How to calculate the latlng of a point a certain distance away from another?


Here's @Daniel Vassallo's answer adapter for Android (java) and using meters instead of km for distances:

private LatLng getDestinationPoint (LatLng pointStart, double bearing, double distance) {
    distance = distance / 6371000;
    bearing = getRad(bearing);

    double lat1 = getRad(pointStart.latitude);
    double lon1 = getRad(pointStart.longitude);

    double lat2 = Math.asin(Math.sin(lat1) * Math.cos(distance) +
            Math.cos(lat1) * Math.sin(distance) * Math.cos(bearing));

    double lon2 = lon1 + Math.atan2(Math.sin(bearing) * Math.sin(distance) *
                    Math.cos(lat1),
            Math.cos(distance) - Math.sin(lat1) *
                    Math.sin(lat2));

    if (Double.isNaN(lat2) || Double.isNaN(lon2)) return null;

    return new LatLng(getDeg(lat2), getDeg(lon2));
}

private double getRad(double degrees) {
    return degrees * Math.PI / 180;
}

private double getDeg(double rad) {
    return rad * 180 / Math.PI;
}
