Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is this distance calculator?
Our calculator uses the Haversine formula, which provides highly accurate straight-line distances between two points on Earth's surface. The accuracy is typically within a few meters for most calculations.
What's the difference between straight-line and travel distance?
Straight-line distance (as-the-crow-flies) is the shortest distance between two points. Actual travel distance by car, train, or ship will be longer due to roads, terrain, and infrastructure.
How are flight times estimated?
Flight time estimates assume an average commercial aircraft speed of 900 km/h (560 mph). Actual flight times may vary due to aircraft type, weather, air traffic, and routing.
Can I use this for navigation?
This tool provides distance calculations and general direction information. For turn-by-turn navigation, please use dedicated GPS navigation apps or mapping services.
What units are supported?
We provide distances in kilometers, miles, and nautical miles. We also show direction in degrees and compass directions (N, NE, E, SE, etc.).
Is this service free to use?
Yes! Our distance calculator is completely free to use with no registration required. You can calculate unlimited distances and share results freely.
🧮 How We Calculate
We use the Haversine formula, which calculates the shortest distance between two points on a sphere (Earth). This gives you the "as-the-crow-flies" distance, which is the most direct path between the two locations.
