Thread: map program

Hybrid View

  1. #1

    Default map program

    Does anyone have a program or something, that I can list a whole bunch of cords and get the miles between then?
    Example like on a map you see the distance between chicago, denver, new york..

    on the left and top has all the locations and distance bettwen them.

    Also would like to enter random locations and see the distance between the location and a existing list..

    Thanks

    You can create an Excel spreadsheet to do that. Took me 2 minutes. Anyone who past 8th grade math and has basic MS Excel skills can do it for you. Odds are there are a few people in your alliance who could do it.

    You can just use this formula, its what I used in my program:

    SquareRoot((X1-X2)²+(Y1-Y2)²)

    Got it , thanks
    =(((X1-X2)^2)+((Y1-Y2)^2))/2

    but this doesn't account for the wrap.. example .. whatever the highest cord is, the next number is 0
    like if 499 499 is the edge, the next cord is 0 0 not 500 500
