GeoLocation Helper Functions
Finding Points Within a Distance of a Latitude/Longitude Using Bounding Coordinates
I've tried to implement everything so that the look and feel seems to be the same.
Install
$ npm install GeoLocationHelper
How to Use
Create a new GeoLocation Object
var geoLocation = require('GeoLocation')
// From Degrees
var geoLocCapeTown = geoLocation.fromDegrees(-33.925278, 18.423889)
// From Radians
var myLocation = geoLocation.fromRadians(1.3963, -0.6981)
Get the distance between two locations
var earthRadius = 6371.01
console.log(geoLocCapeTown.distanceTo(myLocation, earthRadius))
