如何通过两个位置的纬度和经度来计算它们之间的距离？

在这个页面上，您可以看到整个代码和公式，了解Android Location类中如何计算位置距离的方法。

private static void computeDistanceAndBearing(double lat1, double lon1,
    double lat2, double lon2, BearingDistanceCache results) {
    // Based on http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/PUBS_LIB/inverse.pdf
    // using the "Inverse Formula" (section 4)

    lon1 *= Math.PI / 180.0;
    lon2 *= Math.PI / 180.0;
    double a = 6378137.0; // WGS84 major axis
    double b = 6356752.3142; // WGS84 semi-major axis
    double f = (a - b) / a;
    double aSqMinusBSqOverBSq = (a * a - b * b) / (b * b);

    double cosLambda = 0.0;
    double sinLambda = 0.0;
    double lambda = L; // initial guess
    for (int iter = 0; iter < MAXITERS; iter++) {
        double lambdaOrig = lambda;

        double t1 = cosU2 * sinLambda;

        cosSqAlpha = 1.0 - sinAlpha * sinAlpha;
        cos2SM = (cosSqAlpha == 0) ? 0.0 :
            cosSigma - 2.0 * sinU1sinU2 / cosSqAlpha; // (18)
        double uSquared = cosSqAlpha * aSqMinusBSqOverBSq; // defn
        A = 1 + (uSquared / 16384.0) * // (3)
            (4096.0 + uSquared *
             (-768 + uSquared * (320.0 - 175.0 * uSquared)));

        double cos2SMSq = cos2SM * cos2SM;

            (cos2SM + (B / 4.0) *

        lambda = L +
            (1.0 - C) * f * sinAlpha *
            (sigma + C * sinSigma *
             (cos2SM + C * cosSigma *

        if (Math.abs(delta) < 1.0e-12) {
            break;
        }
    }
    float distance = (float) (b * A * (sigma - deltaSigma));
    results.mDistance = distance;
    float initialBearing = (float) Math.atan2(cosU2 * sinLambda,
        cosU1 * sinU2 - sinU1 * cosU2 * cosLambda);
    initialBearing *= 180.0 / Math.PI;
    results.mInitialBearing = initialBearing;
    float finalBearing = (float) Math.atan2(cosU1 * sinLambda,
            -sinU1 * cosU2 + cosU1 * sinU2 * cosLambda);
    finalBearing *= 180.0 / Math.PI;
    results.mFinalBearing = finalBearing;
    results.mLat1 = lat1;
    results.mLat2 = lat2;
    results.mLon1 = lon1;
    results.mLon2 = lon2;
}

只需使用距离公式 Sqrt( (x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2 )
