Hello, I love the MBS Plugin! I'm using MapView.PlanRoute and have 2 questions. 1 - How can I calculate DISTANCE between 2 gps points? 2 - Using MapView am I able to determine if a gps point is within a Radius? Thank you so much, keep up the great work! ---

Check out this function here: [CLGeocoder.Distance](https://www.mbsplugins.eu/CLGeocoderDistance.shtml) It calculates the distance between two coordinates.
