Geography
Distance Between Coordinates Calculator
Compute the distance between two latitude/longitude points using Haversine (great-circle), Euclidean (flat-Earth approximation), or Manhattan (city-block) formulas. Returns kilometres on a spherical Earth model — accurate to within ~0.5% for most use cases.
Geography
Coordinate Format Converter
Convert a decimal degree coordinate into degrees, minutes, and seconds (DMS) format. Use this when entering coordinates into GPS devices, maps, or navigation tools that require DMS notation.
