distance between cities...
To determine the distance between two significant cities of the world the methods (shown to the right) use data from Google Maps and a supplementary list of cities from around the world to find the latitude and
longitude of the two places.
They then calculate the distance between cities (
as the crow flies or as you would drive). It presents that information in
miles, and kilometers.
As an example, the distance between Los Angeles and Buenos Aires is:
(6101 miles) (9818 kilometers)
NOTE: 1 mile (
statue) or (
land) = 5,280 feet, and/or 1.609.344 kilometers.
