All the details are at http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong.html Given start point and end point, you can calculate the initial bearing and the distance. Once you have those, you can iterate the "Destination point given distance and bearing" calculation over the distance to get the intermediate points. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API V2" group.
