Re: How do you calculate distance between 2 GPS coordinates?

This is a GRADUATE question ????

The solution to this problem may be found in all standard surveying books, 
as it is a fundamental problem in geodesy. It is actually dead easy to do 
it with very simple spherical geometry too.

Here is a link to a wonderfully clear "text book" analysis.

Can't these guys even use Google these days ?
