I've not been able to get my distance calculation working. I'm following a solution on another post, but the only difference between this one and mine is that some of my coords are in another table so i am using RELATED. My code is:
Distance = ACOS(SIN('LB_Incident_Post1970'[Incident_Latitude])*
SIN(RELATED('GIS.LifeboatStations'[Stn_Latitude])+
COS('LB_Incident_Post1970'[Incident_Latitude])*
COS(RELATED('GIS.LifeboatStations'[Stn_Latitude])*
COS(RELATED('GIS.LifeboatStations'[Stn_Longitude] - LB_Incident_Post1970[Incident_Longitude]))
*6371)))
Can someone spot where i have gone wrong? I'm getting the error "Function RELATED expects a fully qualified column reference as it's argument".
Solved! Go to Solution.
@rogerdea , seem like a problem with ) , check one in bold
Distance = ACOS(SIN('LB_Incident_Post1970'[Incident_Latitude])*
SIN(RELATED('GIS.LifeboatStations'[Stn_Latitude])+
COS('LB_Incident_Post1970'[Incident_Latitude])*
COS(RELATED('GIS.LifeboatStations'[Stn_Latitude])*
COS(RELATED('GIS.LifeboatStations'[Stn_Longitude]) - LB_Incident_Post1970[Incident_Longitude]))
*6371))
