PHP Get the Distance Between Two Lat/Lng Points

If your building some custom Google Maps and need to get the distance between two points I got the Math done for ya.
<?php
/**
* Return a distance between two lat/lng points
*
* @param int $lat1 REQUIRED; Latitude - Location 1
* @param int $lon1 REQUIRED; Longitude - Location 1
* @param int $lat2 REQUIRED; Latitude - Location 2
* @param int $lon2 REQUIRED; Longitude - Location 2
* @param string $unit OPTIONAL; Distance Type (Km / M)
* @return int
*/
function getDistance($lat1, $lon1, $lat2, $lon2, $unit) {
if($lat1 == $lat2 && $lon1 == $lon2)
return 0;
$theta = $lon1 - $lon2;
$dist = sin(deg2rad($lat1)) * sin(deg2rad($lat2)) + cos(deg2rad($lat1)) * cos(deg2rad($lat2)) * cos(deg2rad($theta));
$dist = acos($dist);
$dist = rad2deg($dist);
$miles = $dist * 60 * 1.1515;
$unit = strtoupper($unit);
if ($unit == "K") {
return ($miles * 1.609344);
} else if ($unit == "N") {
return ($miles * 0.8684);
} else {
return $miles;
}
}
?>
The function below will return the distance between two Lat/Lng points so for you to use in your code to calculate travel fees or just the distance in miles/kilometers. This is a very handy bit of code.
