Dear Sir,

Thank you for your response, which I believe is the method for calculation
aerial/ shortest distance between two latitude-longitude co-ordinates. What
I requested is a method of calculating port-to-port sea route distance using
Google Maps.

 

Best regards

It's pretty easy:

With this type of calculation, some of the numbers can be pretty small, so
floating point precision can become an issue depending on programming
language.  I have seen this in VB with close-together points when trying to
calculate a course between the points.
