Sean R. Owen commented on SPARK-34410:
--------------------------------------
More niche than haversine, so like in SPARK-34409 I'd say this doesn't need to
be in Spark itself.
> Vincenty distance spark function
> --------------------------------

> Key: SPARK-34410
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-34410
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 3.2.0
> Reporter: Darshan Jani
> Priority: Major
>
> Add new spark function to compute the distance between two geo-points using
> vincenty distance formula
> Vincenty uses the oblate spheroid whereas haversine uses unit sphere, this
> will give roughly
> 22m better accuracy (in worst case) than haversine
