In Reply to: Lat/Lon on bill reports? posted by Seamus on January 29, 2002 at 10:56 PM:
I always like to know how far a bill is from my home town. If it is a Multiple Hit Bill, I have to calculate the Distance myself.
I use the Great Circle Distance calculator on-Line, which takes Lat/Lon in Degrees and minutes.
It never calculates exactly what Where's George calculates and sometimes I am one or two miles off.
DOES ANYONE KNOW OF A GOOD ONLINE DISTANCE CALCULATOR that calculates in decimal degress and fractions of degrees. I feel this would be more accurate.
I have noticed that since HANK has upgraded the ZIPCODE database, that some distances from my home town have changed.
