Proximity Search

We need to display Map of locations within a give area. We do not want to upload the data but rather do a search on the local data by longitude/latitude

I checked the following microsoft article for that

Implementing a Proximity Search with SQL Server 2000

The third paramter to the stored procedure dbo.sp_FindNearby is SearchDistance but what should be the value of the last parameter @EarthRadius to call this stored procedure.

Re: Proximity Search

Hi,

The average radius of earth is 6366 km (just measured it hihi). If your geoUnits are in miles you have to give it in miles I suppose.
