API

Hello! In this post, you will learn how to calculate distance between two places using google map API in php.Here you will calculate by air distance between two countries. See below ..how to do it.


<?php
function getDistance($addressFrom, $addressTo, $unit){
    //Change address format
    $formattedAddrFrom = str_replace(' ','+',$addressFrom);
    $formattedAddrTo = str_replace(' ','+',$addressTo);
    
   //Send request and receive json data
$geocodeFrom = file_get_contents('https://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address='.$formattedAddrFrom.'&sensor=false&key=AIzaSyBOMQKyG37IA6VhextrNpB0YxQnsR6Phys');
$outputFrom = json_decode($geocodeFrom);
$geocodeTo = file_get_contents('https://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address='.$formattedAddrTo.'&sensor=false&key=AIzaSyBOMQKyG37IA6VhextrNpB0YxQnsR6Phys');
$outputTo = json_decode($geocodeTo);
    
    //print_r($outputFrom);
    //Get latitude and longitude from geo data
    $latitudeFrom = $outputFrom->results[0]->geometry->location->lat;
    $longitudeFrom = $outputFrom->results[0]->geometry->location->lng;
    $latitudeTo = $outputTo->results[0]->geometry->location->lat;
    $longitudeTo = $outputTo->results[0]->geometry->location->lng;
    //Calculate distance from latitude and longitude
    $theta = $longitudeFrom - $longitudeTo;
    $dist = sin(deg2rad($latitudeFrom)) * sin(deg2rad($latitudeTo)) +  cos(deg2rad($latitudeFrom)) * cos(deg2rad($latitudeTo)) * cos(deg2rad($theta));
    $dist = acos($dist);
    $dist = rad2deg($dist);
    $miles = $dist * 60 * 1.151;
    $unit = strtoupper($unit);
    if ($unit == "K") {
        return ($miles * 1.609344).' km';
    } else if ($unit == "N") {
        return ($miles * 0.8684).' nm';
    } else {
        return $miles.' mi';
    }
}
 
if(isset($_REQUEST['cal']))
{
    
$addressFrom = $_POST['addressfrom'];
$addressTo =$_POST['addressto'];
 
$distance = getDistance($addressFrom, $addressTo, "K");
 
}
