how to find out the distance

375 Contributor
Hi,

My client will input two values say A and B.
Here A and B represent cities. The source is A and the Destination is B
Now i have to find the shortest route for these two cities
One is using Dijktra's algorithm. But there one has two provide the other values too.

eg He starts from A and reaches to B, via A1,A2,A3, B1,B2,B3
we get all the distances from one place to all the above mentioned places and can find out the shortest path.

But my prblem is how shall i find what are the places that lies between these two cities A and B and other distances.
If I take the latitude/longitude of A and B, how shall I find the cities that lies between these two places and then calculate the distance.

Any suggestions pls

regards

Look for map code API for say GoogleMaps, or Yahoo Maps or Microsoft's maps or whatever.
This really isn't a .NET question.

Actually I deal with vehicle tracking system, a software developed using asp.net ,C# and sqlserver.

So the moment any one gives me reply abt finding cities within the source and destination.
I should convert it into asp.net code.

You are very correct in putting out that it is indeed not an .NET question.

But because my software deals with the language, I placed it up here.

Thanks

I have to find zipcodes within a given mileage range (25, 50, etc). I know it's possible to use the longitude/latitude to find this, and I have that for the zipcodes, but does anyone have a "ready made" formula? I know it has something to do with the sine/cosine, but the "signs" aren't clear enough to me (neither are the wonders). Thanks in advance for the wisdom. J

I am trying to find a software that can find distance between two ZIP codes. I think most of them do it by having the longtitude and latidute of each ZIP, and substract. But this gives the air distance. Where can I find software that find the ground distance (like in Mapquest). Thanks, Joe

Anyone knows how I can find a script for "Find a Dealer near you" locator script? I prefer to have it in two stages: 1.

When the user clicks on the dealer's link, the result will be the exact Driving distance. If this is not the right forum to post this message, then, if you know which

I need an Access application that can search dealers from my dealer list, in a 30 miles distance from the user. You may see many applications like this on the web if you search under "find a dealer near you". Here is one I found: http://www.shakespeare-antennas.com/content/dealersearch.asp But I do not want to have it on the web, I want to create it on access. I think will need at least two tables:
