How it works

Built on the same math aviation and GPS systems use.

Pick two places

Search any of 154,223 cities, towns and places across 250 countries — capitals, small towns, everywhere.

Get the full picture

Great-circle distance in km, miles and nautical miles on an interactive flight-path map — plus estimated flight time where a direct route operates, driving estimate and compass direction.

Plan smarter

See the geographic halfway point with its nearest town, the time zone difference, and distances to nearby places — computed instantly.

Why DistanceAtlas?

Every page on DistanceAtlas is computed from precise latitude/longitude coordinates using the haversine great-circle formula — the shortest path over the Earth's curve, and the same reference method used in aviation.

Unlike generic distance tools, every route includes an interactive map with the true flight path, the halfway point with its nearest town, and the time zone difference between both places.

Frequently asked questions

How are distances calculated?
We use the great-circle (haversine) formula between city coordinates — the shortest path over the Earth's surface, also called "as the crow flies". Road and flight figures are estimates derived from it; flight times assume a direct route operates, which is not guaranteed for every pair of cities.
Are the distances exact driving distances?
No. Driving figures are estimates (about 1.3× the straight line). For turn-by-turn road routing use a navigation app; for planning and comparison, great-circle distance is the standard.
How many places does DistanceAtlas cover?
Our database covers 154223 cities, towns and places across 250 countries — every pair computes instantly.
