computeDistanceBetween() from the Google Maps API v3 geometry library returns the straight line distance between two google.maps.LatLng objects (the default units are meters).

Be sure to include the geometry library

Each phone, amd many other geo apis have a function to calculate the distance between two lat,lon coordinates.

If you dont have one, then use the haversine distance formula.
