Same calculation in decimal latitude and longitude.

Note: This calculation is not accurate enough for navigation.

The calculations assume the Earth is a perfect sphere (which it is not). These results are intended for use with GPS receivers used to locate features on leaking underground storage tank sites. Check the accuracy of your GPS receiver as large errors occur when used for small scale measurements.
