Use of Haversine Formula in Finding Distance Between Temporary Shelter and Waste End Processing Sites

Abstract

One way to handle waste of garbage problems can be done by determining the location of any Temporary Shelters that can be visited first. To determine this, it is necessary to find the distance between the location where the driver is located and which Temporary Shelter is available. This study aims to find the distance between the location of drivers and Temporary Shelters using the Haversine formula that can produce a distance between two points on the surface of the globe. The study was conducted by taking the location of drivers and Temporary Shelters in the form of coordinate points, calculating the distance between the points where drivers and Temporary Shelters are located, and comparing the results of distances obtained. The results of the study are a list of drivers and Temporary Shelters’ distances from the smallest order. With the selection of visits from the closest distance first, it is expected that drivers can save costs and travel time taken to visit all Temporary Shelters and end up at Waste End Processing Sites.
