Watching this video is like playing in kindergarden and then at 11:38 the UFC figther entering and smacking the shit out of you with Half Versed Sinus formula :D
I bit dissapointed, because my main interest was to learn about haversine formula. The whole video is cool, but the amount of attention paid to the formula is a wasted potential. If you have a video about it specifically, could be cool to add the link in the description!
I was hoping to understand the haversine formula better, and I'm still not getting it. I found another version of it (different from the one you present) and I'm not sure if this other is wrong, or if it is just a different way to get the same result. In any case, I was not able to use either successfully to find/confirm the (already-known) distance between my two practice coordinates. Very frustrating! Do you have more videos on Haversine?
for 5:29, i keep getting 49.83 when minusing the two points on my calculator. Why wouldnt you just convert both? and why do i keep getting a slightly different answer from you??
We’ll fun fact, the shape of the earth looks like an ellipsoid potato and it’s not a perfect sphere. So we instead use a very complicated formula that works out real distances based on Einsteins theory of relativity. It takes in to account the gravitational force which can be used to model the shape of the earth.😅
@@karhukivi I thought there was a certain formula to calculate distance on earth using many using like 6 constants, think it was called something like length of arc using hermit transformation🤔 but I’m not sure I might be wrong here, I have not studied this for long time, learned this in my degree of Surveying
@@raveen-a5941 Yes, between points at different elevations on a spheroid, as for primary triangulation surveys, but I don't remember that formula, sorry!
It's 18,75 not 18,45. You can do this because there are 60 minutes in a degree. If you subtract the numbers the way they are, it can be hard to remember what you need to subtract while doing the math. So instead we represent the number in a different way that's easier to understand.
ok, with the haversine formula at the end, how are you getting 2827.7? because I've put it in my calculator multiple times with different bracket arrangements to try and get that, but I just keep getting 2842? So I don't know if I'm doing it wrong or if you have the wrong answer? And If I am doing it wrong WHAT am I doing wrong? If I understand correctly, arccos is cos-1 on the calculator? So in my calculator I'm putting: 3440.1*acos((sin(0.488)*sin(-0.244))+cos(0.488)*cos(-0.244)*cos(-0.122-0.261)) and the answer comes up as 2842.0105435058
To get .1 NM precision will require 5 decimal places--not just 3. .28° is not 488 radian. It is nearer .489 radian. In this task it is to be written as .48870 radian. -14° = about -.24435 radian. The change in longitude is properly found by subtracting the exact longitudes, then converting to radians. -21° is about -.36652 radian. (Using -.383 radian would cause 21 NM of error.) [For exactitude, when calculating you could key in: (28° × pi ÷ 180°), (-14° × pi ÷ 180°), and (-21° × pi ÷ 180°). Your calculator knows pi to more than 5 places]. The distance from formula is about 2801.9 NM.
Great video but I am currently faced with another way of calculating the shortest distance that I can't find any info on. Have you covered it in the past? It goes as follows. Given A=60°N 10°E B=50°N 170° W. The shortest route doesn' t follow the 60 parallel but a great circle 10°E 170°W. So from the 60°parallel to the pole is 30° (How do I get this difference?) From the pole to the 170°W meridian is 40° (again how do I get this?) So 30 + 40 = 70 × 60 = 4200 minutes = 4200nm. What is this method called and do you cover it? I don't know how to get the difference from the pole using basic measurement tools allowed on exams. Update: I just realized the pole is 90° not 0, silly me... that solves the degree difference.
You can find the distance between the two points through de Haversine formula (let's call this distance "d"), and then, given that a great circle measures 40,000 km, the angle between the two points will be: angle = (d/40,000) * 360º
Second in 11:15,why the 🌎 radius mention as a constant in the formula, while the earth’s radius changes between the poles to the equator(from 6,378km to 6,357km)- earth isn’t a perfect sphere.
@@bobgreenfield9158 How so? Seasons work due to the heat of the sun changing. And the sun has nothing to do with how we measure the surface of earth. The sun is not earth. Have you got any direct surface curvature measurements proving we live on a sphere with a radius of 3958 miles?
Each latitute about 29 miles/ degree and about 31 / degree longitude at equator radius about 6900 km and variation at 45 degree the radius reduce about 1500 km 4400 km need verification
Not really helpful. Your explanation doesn't help to find the difference in longitude. Take this example: E179° 20' 12'', W032° 30' 22''. I can't find the correct difference using your method.
You can make your own system, though. I would stick to the decimal numbers included in the GPS info with +/- for N/S and E/W. Google maps use both. Minutes and seconds are just fractions of a degree. A latitude becomes +/-58.97754453 as an example. Quite easy to convert with 0.97754453*60 where the whole number is the result for minutes and the remainder is an extra 60 times (60*60).
Very clearly explained! Before I didn't know, why and how to use the Haversine formula. You provided the background for all of it.

Very good information for measuring distance through coordinates
Pls can you do a video on how to calculate distance in kilometers or meters between geographic coordinates.
Bruh. Just convert the answer in miles to Kilometers lol
Change 3440.1 to 6371. That's nautical miles converted to kilometers.

how are you calculating btw? degree and minute in the same time?
because 80-30= 50 and 67-18= 49, is right as per video.

Does haversine formula works on spheroid or ellipsoid. for which one ?
Spheroid, but the ellipticity of the Earth is small, just 0.37% so can be ignored for most navigational purposes.
Before this video, I have calculated distances between points like a flat earther. (Using the Pythagorean theorem)
😂

@2:43 lost me here. Why is it difficult to subtract 15 from 30? Why and how did you go from 19,15 to 18,45?

19°15' - 10°45' = 18°75' - 10°45'

I have a question, as a flat earther i am called sometimes. Where did you get longitude and latitude in the first place, how was it all created?
Why not convert do decimal degrees?
28+07/60 etc.
It's much more practical.
Yes. Writing the angles that way. Is valid.
I don't know where I am making a mistake. From the calculations in the last task, I get 2842.01NM. Could someone help me?
same here
I get 2826.95 lol
State the radian angles to 5 decimal places.
Find the change in longitude first, then convert that (-14°) angle to radian measure.
1 nautical mile is equal to 1852 meters, not kilometers.
