-----------------------------------------------------------
Yes there is still a bug.
Most of what I was saying was right. I just did a quick maps.google.com - click
directions - and then put the 2 lat,long in both fields.
137 miles = 220.480128 kilometers (Google)
196.6km using http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong.html
See on map:
http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong-map.html?lat1=45.176140&long1=-93.873410&lat2=44.936905&long2=-91.392935
Distance: 196.6 km
Initial bearing: 096°53′44″
Final bearing: 098°39′05″
Midpoint: 45°03′48″N, 092°37′50″W
As the crow flies is less distance (which makes sense).
I even used the JS function on
http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong.html:
<code>
function toRad(a) {
return (a*Math.PI/180);
};
function hsin(lat1,lon1,lat2,lon2) {
var R = 6371; // km
var dLat = toRad(lat2-lat1);
var dLon = toRad(lon2-lon1);
var a = Math.sin(dLat/2) * Math.sin(dLat/2) +
Math.cos(toRad(lat1)) * Math.cos(toRad(lat2)) *
Math.sin(dLon/2) * Math.sin(dLon/2);
var c = 2 * Math.atan2(Math.sqrt(a), Math.sqrt(1-a));
var d = R * c;
return d;
};
<code>
As a Javascript function - while looping through the results. Since I cannot
find a way to output the distance automagically from the XML coming back from
SOLR.
<script>document.write(hsin(lat,lon,solr.lat,solr.lom));</script>
I kept playing with d=<km> to see when the filter is not longer showing on the
results at while value.
&sort=dist(2,store,vector(44.9369054,-91.3929348)) asc
d=285 shows.
d=284 does not show.

> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build
> Affects Versions: 1.5
> Reporter: Bill Bell
>
> The calculations of distance appears to be off.
> Note: "The radius of the sphere to be used when calculating distances on a
> sphere (i.e. haversine). Default is the Earth's mean radius in kilometers
> (see org.apache.solr.search.function.distance.Constants.EARTH_MEAN_RADIUS_KM)
> which is set to 3,958.761458084784856. Most applications will not need to set
> this."
> The radius of the earth in KM is 6371.009 km (≈3958.761 mi).
> Also filtering distance appears to be off - example data:
> 45.17614,-93.87341 to 44.9369054,-91.3929348 Approx 137 miles Google. 169
> miles = 220 kilometers
