Understanding Great Circle Route Generator

Coordinate systems, order and units

Generate a GeoJSON great-circle line between two WGS84 coordinates with a selectable number of interpolation points entirely in-browser.

Great Circle Route Generator depends on knowing how coordinates are expressed. Geographic coordinates commonly use WGS84 longitude and latitude, while projected systems use linear units and a defined datum and projection.

How to verify the coordinates

Great-circle output is not a road, rail, walking, or maritime route and may cross restricted areas or the antimeridian.

To verify Great Circle Route Generator, spot-check a known place, confirm axis order and verify the expected unit and CRS. A numerically valid coordinate can still be geographically wrong when those assumptions are incorrect.
