This document contains code to calculate the distance between two latitude-longitude coordinate pairs. It defines a static method that takes in four float parameters for latitude and longitude of two locations. The method uses basic trigonometry formulas involving earth's radius, latitude and longitude differences to calculate the great-circle distance between the points in meters, and then converts it to feet.
