Geo/Distance version 0.07 ========================= This perl library provides the ability to calculate the distance between two geographic points and to find the closest locations to a single point using a database connection. There is both a function oriented interface, and an object oriented interface. Both have the same capabilities. Your choice of interface depends on your programming style and needs. Geo::Distance only recognizes standard decimal based longitude and latitude measurements. If you have other coordinate systems that you would like to use, then take a peak at the Geo::Coordinates::* modules. The distance that is returned can be in one of several different measurements, such as meters, light seconds, miles, inches, feet, etc. INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install DEPENDENCIES None.
