The Geokit gem provides:
|
|
- Distance calculations between two points on the earth. Calculate the distance
|
|
in miles, kilometers, meters, or nautical miles, with all the trigonometry
|
|
abstracted away by Geokit.
|
|
- Geocoding from multiple providers. It supports Google, Yahoo, Geocoder.us, and
|
|
Geocoder.ca geocoders, and others. It provides a uniform response structure
|
|
from all of them. It also provides a fail-over mechanism, in case your input
|
|
fails to geocode in one service.
|
|
- Rectangular bounds calculations: is a point within a given rectangular bounds?
|
|
- Heading and midpoint calculations
