Straight-line vs driving distance

They are different — pick the right metric for your use case.

  • Straight-line: great-circle distance, the shortest path
  • Driving: route distance, depends on roads + turns
  • Use straight-line for service area math; driving for ETA estimates

Common uses

Distance calculations show up in lots of business workflows.

  • Service eligibility (is the address within X miles?)
  • Distance-based pricing tiers
  • Real estate proximity to landmarks

Accuracy notes

Geocoding picks the best match — give it enough context.

  • Be specific (include city + state) for accurate geocodes
  • Distance over 500 mi: still accurate via great-circle math
  • Both miles and kilometers shown — pick one for your audience
