Most of us are more accustomed to seeing latitude and longitude simply as lines on a gridded map, but few consider their actual potential. In the real world, latitude and longitude play an important role in several fields and calculations, but one of their most common uses is measuring distances between points. Especially in fields like logistics, transportation, air travel, and more, these calculations deliver a key component for examining the fastest, shortest, and most efficient routes between two locations.

However, the calculation isn’t one many of us are used to making when considering it involves equations and math that most people are not accustomed to using on a regular basis. Today, the calculation is mostly handled digitally, with programs and algorithms designed specifically to uncover the answer. Even so, understanding the basics behind the concept and comprehending how the math works is vital to ensure you understand exactly how to calculate distance using latitude and longitude.

Latitude and longitude basics

Latitude and longitude are a coordinates system that let anyone determine the location of a single point on any part of the earth’s surface. Latitude refers to the angle of a given point measured from the equator and with a vertex at or near the center of the earth (depending on the type of latitude measured). As you move north or south, the latitude will increase from 0° to 90.

Longitude is a similar measure, although it measures location to the east or west of the prime meridian—the imaginary line that connects the north and south poles and crosses Greenwich, London. The calculation for longitude uses the angle made from a line that goes from the earth’s center to the intersection of the prime meridian and the equator and then extends east or west. Unlike latitude, however, the earth’s longitude at both east and west reaches 180°.
