what is the formula for calculating latitude and longitude in geography
hello aspirant
well the calculation of latitude and longitude which are nothing but a coordinate system by means of which the position and location of any place on earths surface can be determined .
by using haversine formula you can calculate
a = sin²(Δφ/2) + cos φ 1 ⋅ cos φ 2 ⋅ sin²(Δλ/2) |
---|
c = 2 ⋅ atan2( √a, √(1−a) ) |
d = R ⋅ c |
φ is the symbol for latitude, λ is symbol for longitude and r is the earths radius.
hope this information helps you!
