echo $nola->getLongitude(); // -90.0750700

Calculate the distance between to sets of points

You can give it a second set of coordinates to calculate the distance between them:, _(*7)

$houston = new Geo([
    'latitude'  => 29.7632800,
    'longitude' => -95.3632700
]);

echo $nola->distanceTo($houston);          // Outputs '317.11' miles
echo $nola->distanceTo($houston, 2, true); // Outputs '510.34' kilometers
