It includes an extensive, searchable database of airports and other locations."Seth Dixon's insight:The shortest distance between two points is not a straight line…well, that depends on your map projection.
How does the Great Circle Mapper calculate distances and paths? Why does the example in Ed Williams' Aviation Formulary calculate a different distance for LAX-JFK? Using The Great Circle Mapper's Maps
This paper focuses on supporting students through quality assurance by reflecting on both distance-learning institutions and generated data by means of field notes and observations that took place during presentations.
The great circle is the shortest distance between the two points along the surface of the spherical earth. Notice that th e intersection between the plane and the earth goes considerably north (pole ward) of the constant latitude path. At the maximum the difference in the two paths is about 350 km.
