GM_UtilityCalcDistance Method

Calculates the great-circle distance in meters between two points. The points can either be specified as lat/lon values or in the current projection.

Namespace:  GlobalMapper
Assembly:  GlobalMapperWrapperNET45 (in GlobalMapperWrapperNET45.dll) Version: 19.1.0.0 (19.1.0.0)
Syntax
Copy
public static GM_Error_t32 CalcDistance(
	double aFromX,
	double aFromY,
	double aToX,
	double aToY,
	bool aLatLon,
	out double aDist
)

Parameters
