Expected Behavior

Get an approximate odometer of 3.3 km

Actual Behavior

The package worked fine in storing the location points, but when trying to get the total route odometer it showed a distance of 2.2 km I determined the same route on Google Maps, and the distance appeared approximately 3.3 km. There is an error in calculating the odometer as much as 1 km

Context

We are developing a taxi application, so we need the process of tracking the location, and calculating the distance accurately because the price of the ride depends on the distance traveled. How can I get the exact distance?

This is the path traveled

I took the points and then displayed them on Google Maps

Go do 10 tests of similar length and post the results here

I have tried it 7 times so far, all experiments have been successful except this one

[christocracy]

I have no idea what happened in one of your tests.
