Get the distance between two locations in android?

Use the Google Maps Directions API. You’ll need to request the directions over HTTP. You can do this directly from Android, or via your own server.

For example, directions from Montreal to Toronto:

GET http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json?origin=Toronto&destination=Montreal&sensor=false

You’ll end up with some JSON. In routes[].legs[].distance, you’ll get an object like this:

     "legs" : [
        {
           "distance" : {
              "text" : "542 km",
              "value" : 542389
           },

You can also get the polyline information directly from the response object.
