List of the objets with extensions:
| Methods | Return Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| distanceFrom(other:LatLng) | Number | Returns the distance, in meters, from this location to the given location. By default, this distance is calculated given the default equatorial earth radius of 6378137 meters. The earth is approximated as a sphere, hence the distance could be off as much as 0.3%, especially in the polar extremes. |
| getMiddle(other:LatLng) | LatLng | Returns the middle coordinate, LatLng, between two LatLngs. |
