[jira] [Created] (HIVE-6006) Add UDF to calculate distance between geographic coordinates

Kostiantyn Kudriavtsev created HIVE-6006:
--------------------------------------------

             Summary: Add UDF to calculate distance between geographic coordinates
                 Key: HIVE-6006
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6006
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: UDF
            Reporter: Kostiantyn Kudriavtsev
            Priority: Minor


It would be nice to have Hive UDF to calculate distance between two points on Earth. Haversine formula seems to be good enough to overcome this issue

The next function is proposed:
HaversineDistance(lat1, lon1, lat2, lon2) - calculate Harvesine Distance between 2 points with coordinates (lat1, lon1) and (lat2, lon2)
