Distance between two or more Geolocations (Lat, Lon,)

I'm have a search that pulls in user login info with lat and lon. I'm trying to calculate the distance between two cordinates for the same user name. If there isn't a match on username, I want it to move to the next match and then output the distance between the two with the login time.

Hope that will help.

This looks great. Just two questions...what is speed and is the distance in Kilometers or Miles and speed MPH or KPH?

Speed is e.g. when user connected from London and next time from China - in this field you can see with what speed user was traveling. This can be very suspicious in case user in 5 minutes did so. 🙂 distance is in miles but you can recalculate for your needs.

Thank you!! I should have clarified. is the speed in MPH? Also is there a way to add time between the two logins as a column?
