- Calculate the distance between two coordinate points on the earth's surface (using Vincenty, Haversine, Great Circle or The Cosine Law)
- Conversion between units (metres to kilometres, nautical miles and miles).
- Convert coordinate notation (decimals to degrees, minutes & seconds and back again).

This is an improved (PHP5.3+) and tested version of [Geographic Calculations in PHP](https://github.com/treffynnon/Geographic-Calculations-in-PHP).
