        static double getDistance​(double longitude1,
                                  double longitude2,
                                  double latitude1,
                                  double latitude2)
        Calculate distance between two points in latitude and longitude. Uses Haversine method as its base.
        Parameters:
        longitude1 - Longitude 1.
        longitude2 - Longitude 2.
        latitude1 - Latitude 1.
        latitude2 - Latitude 2.
        Returns:
        Distance in Meters, or Double.NaN if either values are Double.isNaN().
      • getLongitude

        double getLongitude()
