I want to get the Distance between two latitude and longitude in
meter / km . So i am using the below function . It gives me the
different result than the google Map.

Can you help me to solve my problem ? i dont understand What is the
Problem ?

Code

private double distance(double lat1, double lon1, double lat2, double
lon2)
    {
          double theta = lon1 - lon2;
          double dist = Math.sin(deg2rad(lat1)) *
Math.sin(deg2rad(lat2)) + Math.cos(deg2rad(lat1)) *
Math.cos(deg2rad(lat2)) * Math.cos(deg2rad(theta));
          dist = Math.acos(dist);
          dist = rad2deg(dist);
          dist = dist * 60 * 1.1515;
          return (dist);
     }

     private double deg2rad(double deg)
     {
          return (deg * Math.PI / 180.0);
     }

     private double rad2deg(double rad)
     {
          return (rad * 180.0 / Math.PI);
     }

Current Latitude = 23.012281666666663 Current Longitude =
72.51798333333333

Destination Latitude = 23.1120487 Destination Latitude = 72.5766759

It gives this Result = 12579.679 in Meter, while in google map it
gives this result = 17.9 Km

I do not understand why this two gives the different result.
