I need help calculate distance using lat and long information.
Using math formula shown below (its' tested and working but when source and target lat and long information is in same table)
In this scenario, one table I have Source and target and need distance between them and the lat and long values needs to be looked up from another table.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
From | To | Distance (Miles) |
Berlin | Tokyo | ? |
Mumbai | New York | ? |
London | Paris | ? |
City | Lat | Long |
Berlin | 39.58305 | -74.78388977 |
Mumbai | 39.55434 | -74.74279785 |
London | 39.51902 | -74.69287872 |
Tokyo | 39.48972 | -74.59777832 |
New York | 39.45287 | -74.63844299 |
Paris | 39.43 | -74.57861328 |

Solved! Go to Solution.
Distance =
var Lat1=LOOKUPVALUE(Locations[Lat],Locations[City],SELECTEDVALUE(Distances[From]))
var Lng1=LOOKUPVALUE(Locations[Long],Locations[City],SELECTEDVALUE(Distances[From]))
var Lat2 =LOOKUPVALUE(Locations[Lat],Locations[City],SELECTEDVALUE(Distances[To]))
var Lng2 =LOOKUPVALUE(Locations[Long],Locations[City],SELECTEDVALUE(Distances[To]))
var P = DIVIDE(PI(),180)
var A = 0.5 - COS((Lat2-Lat1) * P)/2 + COS(Lat1 * P) * COS(lat2 * P) * (1-COS((Lng2- Lng1) * P))/2
return 12742 * ASIN((SQRT(A)))
see attached.
