I'm looking for an online interactive calculator.
I want to be able to enter 2 sets of coords and get the distance, in
feet, between the 2 coords.
These sets of coords that I enter into the calculator would not be
more than 10,000 feet apart.
Can someone steer me to a website?
Thank you...... Lee

Try Forward-Inverse programs, they're more for survey purposes and
will get tight enough for small increments.
This one will return in meters:

I like this one. If anyone is interested, the code is contained in the
web page source. It appears to be the methodology of Thaddeus
Vincenty. It's claimed his method achieves sub millimeter accuracy on
the reference spheroid.
