CakePHP GeoDistance Plugin
==========================

[](#cakephp-geodistance-plugin)

A CakePHP 3 Behavior for querying geocoded data by distance.
------------------------------------------------------------

[](#a-cakephp-3-behavior-for-querying-geocoded-data-by-distance)

CakePHP-GeoDistance is a CakePHP 3 behavior for querying geocoded data based on cartographic distance using the spherical cosine law. It is great for 'find my nearest X' or 'find Y near me' type queries. If your database doesn't already have latitude/longitude co-ordinates attached to your geographic data, you can add them using a geocoding plugin. Try [this one](https://github.com/chris48s/cakephp-geocoder).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install from [packagist](https://packagist.org/packages/chris48s/cakephp-geodistance) using [composer](https://getcomposer.org/). Add the following to your `composer.json`:

```
"require": {
    "chris48s/cakephp-geodistance": "^2.0.0"
}

```

and run `composer install` or `composer update`, as applicable.

Supported databases
