Hi all:

I need to calculate distances on the earth. Ideally I’d like to use the haversine formula.

There is an example in the docs at:

http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_49_0/libs/geometry/doc/html/geometry/quickstart.html

under the non-Cartesian heading.

Will this do what I need, or do I need the Geographical coordinate system, (if yes where is this available and what features does this supply?)

Any help appreciated.

Regards

Sean.
