Use Great Circle Mapper to calculate the distance and flight duration between all airports worldwide and draw the flight route on a map.
I need to use Python to create a great circle distance -- both a number, and preferably some kind of 'curve' that I can use to draw in a client-side map. I don't care about the format of the curve -- be it WKT, or a set of pairs of coordinates -- but just want to get the data out.
Q: How does the Great Circle Mapper calculate distances and paths? A: The Great Circle Mapper uses formulae developed by Thaddeus Vincenty to perform geodesic calculations with modifications by Charles Karney based on work by Friedrich Bessel to improve performance and accuracy.
