README
phpgeo provides abstractions to geographical coordinates (including support for different ellipsoids) and allows you to calculate geographical distances between coordinates with high precision.
Requirements
Minimum required PHP version is 5.4. PHP 5.3 compatibility was dropped with release of version 0.4.

Installation
Using Composer, just add it to your composer.json
by running:
composer require codificar/phpgeo
Features
Info: Please visit the documentation site for complete and up-to-date documentation!
phpgeo provides the following features (follow the links for examples):
- abstractions of several geometry objects (coordinate/point, line, polyline/GPS track, polygon
- support for different ellipsoids, e. g. WGS-84
- length/distance/perimeter calculations with different implementations (Haversine, Vincenty)
- Geofence calculation, i. e. answering the question "Is this point contained in that area/polygon?"
- formatting and output of geometry objects
(GeoJSON, nice strings, e. g.
18° 54′ 41″ -155° 40′ 42″
) - calculation of bearing angle between two points (spherical or with Vincenty's formula)
- calculation of a destination point for a given starting point, bearing angle, and distance (spherical or with Vincenty's formula)
- calculation of the perpendicular distance between a point and a line
- getting segments of a polyline /polygon,
- reversing direction of polyline/polygon
Examples/Usage
This list is incomplete, please visit the documentation site for the full monty of documentation and examples!
Distance between two coordinates (Vincenty's Formula)
Use the calculator object directly:
<?php
use Location\Coordinate;
use Location\Distance\Vincenty;
$coordinate1 = new Coordinate(19.820664, -155.468066); // Mauna Kea Summit
$coordinate2 = new Coordinate(20.709722, -156.253333); // Haleakala Summit
$calculator = new Vincenty();
echo $calculator->getDistance($coordinate1, $coordinate2); // returns 128130.850 (meters; ≈128 kilometers)
or call the getDistance()
method of a Coordinate object by injecting a calculator object:
<?php
use Location\Coordinate;
use Location\Distance\Vincenty;
$coordinate1 = new Coordinate(19.820664, -155.468066); // Mauna Kea Summit
$coordinate2 = new Coordinate(20.709722, -156.253333); // Haleakala Summit
echo $coordinate1->getDistance($coordinate2, new Vincenty()); // returns 128130.850 (meters; ≈128 kilometers)
Simplifying a polyline
Polylines can be simplified to save storage space or bandwidth. Simplification is done with the Ramer–Douglas–Peucker algorithm (AKA Douglas-Peucker algorithm).
<?php
use Location\Coordinate;
use Location\Polyline;
use Location\Distance\Vincenty;
$polyline = new Polyline();
$polyline->addPoint(new Coordinate(10.0, 10.0));
$polyline->addPoint(new Coordinate(20.0, 20.0));
$polyline->addPoint(new Coordinate(30.0, 10.0));
$processor = new Simplify($polyline);
// remove all points which perpendicular distance is less
// than 1500 km from the surrounding points.
$simplified = $processor->simplify(1500000);
// simplified is the polyline without the second point (which
// perpendicular distance is ~1046 km and therefore below
// the simplification threshold)
Polygon contains a point (e.g. "GPS geofence")
phpgeo has a polygon implementation which can be used to determinate if a point is contained in it or not.
A polygon consists of at least three points. Points are instances of the Coordinate
class.
Warning: The calculation gives wrong results if the polygons has points on both sides of the 180/-180 degrees meridian.
<?php
use Location\Coordinate;
use Location\Polygon;
$geofence = new Polygon();
$geofence->addPoint(new Coordinate(-12.085870,-77.016261));
$geofence->addPoint(new Coordinate(-12.086373,-77.033813));
$geofence->addPoint(new Coordinate(-12.102823,-77.030938));
$geofence->addPoint(new Coordinate(-12.098669,-77.006476));
$outsidePoint = new Coordinate(-12.075452, -76.985079);
$insidePoint = new Coordinate(-12.092542, -77.021540);
var_dump($geofence->contains($outsidePoint)); // returns bool(false) the point is outside the polygon
var_dump($geofence->contains($insidePoint)); // returns bool(true) the point is inside the polygon
Formatted output of coordinates
You can format a coordinate in different styles.
Decimal Degrees
<?php
use Location\Coordinate;
use Location\Formatter\Coordinate\DecimalDegrees;
$coordinate = new Coordinate(19.820664, -155.468066); // Mauna Kea Summit
echo $coordinate->format(new DecimalDegrees());
Degrees/Minutes/Seconds (DMS)
<?php
use Location\Coordinate;
use Location\Formatter\Coordinate\DMS;
$coordinate = new Coordinate(18.911306, -155.678268); // South Point, HI, USA
$formatter = new DMS();
echo $coordinate->format($formatter); // 18° 54′ 41″ -155° 40′ 42″
$formatter->setSeparator(", ")
->useCardinalLetters(true)
->setUnits(DMS::UNITS_ASCII);
echo $coordinate->format($formatter); // 18° 54' 41" N, 155° 40' 42" W
GeoJSON
<?php
use Location\Coordinate;
use Location\Formatter\Coordinate\GeoJSON;
$coordinate = new Coordinate(18.911306, -155.678268); // South Point, HI, USA
echo $coordinate->format(new GeoJSON()); // { "type" : "point" , "coordinates" : [ -155.678268, 18.911306 ] }
