You can calculate the distance between cities for free using our website. The distance between cities is calculated using the shortest paths. At the same time, fuel consumption is shown depending on the type and brand of the car.

The calculation can be useful in the following situations:

• planning a private vacation trip with the whole family by car or determining the optimal route for a business trip. The calculator will help you calculate fuel costs while traveling (we know the average fuel consumption and its price);
• will help professional long-distance drivers navigate routes between cities;
• calculator options are useful for cargo senders when determining the cost of transportation services (the calculator determines the kilometer, the carrier gives the tariffs);

How to use the distance calculator?

Setting and planning a route between cities is not difficult. To do this, you will need to enter the starting point along the route in the “From” field. A convenient way to select cities has been created. The arrival field for a given route is filled in similarly. After selecting cities, click the calculation button.

A map will open with a plotted route and an indication of the starting and ending points of movement and cities. They are indicated with red markers. The route by car between cities is drawn with a red line. The following data is provided on top of the map for reference:

• estimated route length;
• travel time;
• how much fuel is required for the trip.

• what type of roads along the route;
• the route is divided into separate sections indicating the length and time of travel.

This route data can be printed and received in a convenient A4 format. If necessary, you can make adjustments to the calculation. Set the parameters you need for your trip and request a quote again.

Additional settings make it possible to make adjustments to speed calculations for each type of road surface. There is an option to select transit settlements.

A fuel calculator will be very useful. Substitute into it the parameters of the car (average fuel consumption) and the current average prices for 1 liter of fuel. This will allow you to find out the required amount of fuel and its cost.

Alternative routing methods

If you have a road atlas at hand, then you can use it to roughly determine the route on the map. A curvimeter, if available, will help determine quite approximately the distance between cities.

Finding out the time spent on the trip will be more difficult. The entire route will need to be divided into fragments with roads of the same type. Knowing the speed at which you can travel on each class of road and knowing the length of such sections, you can calculate the travel time.

Data from reference books and atlases on distances between cities can also come to the rescue. Please note that such tables usually indicate large cities.

Algorithms for calculating distances between cities

Route calculations are based on an algorithm for finding a path using the shortest principle. Distances between cities by car are determined based on the satellite coordinates of settlements and roads. As a result of reading all the data on a computer, the result is given as a simulation option. When planning a long trip, don’t be lazy and take care of your backup options.

In practice, there are two main methods for calculating distances between settlements:

• exclusively on existing roads, taking into account access roads;
• in a straight line (like a bird flies - straight and free). The distance turns out to be shorter, but in practice it has no practical significance - there are no roads along such a route.

Our program is used to calculate the distance between cities along highways and roads.

The form below allows you to make an online calculation of distances between settlements in Russia, CIS countries and Europe, plot a route by car and get a calculation of fuel consumption.

Distance and fuel consumption calculator

Calculating distances between cities and planning a route by car

Any trip by car requires you to first measure the distance between cities and plot the car route on the map. This can be done quickly, simply and conveniently using the special online service “Calculation of distances between cities”.

The distance calculation service is designed to determine the route and distance between settlements, as well as travel duration and fuel consumption. With its help, you can calculate the distance between cities in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan and other CIS countries, as well as Europe.

The calculation of the optimal route is carried out in accordance with road maps and consists of finding the shortest, in time or distance, path between two points.

Using the appropriate settings, you can create a driving route based on your wishes and needs. The service allows you to exclude specific settlements and sections of the road from the calculation, as well as list intermediate points through which you must definitely plot a route on the map. You can specify the driving speed for each road type to get a more accurate timing calculation.

What's good about this service?

To calculate distances between cities online, you only need Internet access, without installing programs, without being tied to a specific computer, in any place where there is Internet access.

performs international distance calculations

You can calculate road distances not only within a certain country, but also find out the distance between cities in different countries if you are planning a trip abroad.

gives accurate calculation of distances

provides additional calculation settings

You can set additional parameters for the calculation (bypassing countries, cities and highways, including certain settlements in the route, indicating speed on different roads), and ultimately plot the optimal route taking into account all the criteria.

Planning routes and calculating distances along roads will help when planning a trip on vacation or on a business trip. If you are going on a trip abroad using your own transport, then in the service you can calculate the distance between countries.

Distance and fuel consumption calculation is a useful tool for calculating travel costs, with which you can easily calculate the cost of your route. Indicate fuel consumption and price to calculate the amount of fuel required for the entire route and its cost.

Going on vacation in your own car gives you an excellent opportunity to explore nearby attractions. Here, again, online calculation of distances and routes comes in handy; you can plot a detailed travel route in advance and plan (in terms of time and financial costs) trips to interesting sites and cities near your vacation spot.

Using route calculations between cities will also be useful when sending cargo using a transport company. Using the distance calculator, you can determine the mileage to your destination and estimate the cost of delivery in accordance with the freight carrier's tariffs. If you carry out cargo transportation yourself, calculating distances is simply necessary for you.

So, what does the distance calculation service offer:

You can build the optimal route, look at the traffic pattern on the map and, if necessary, print out the calculation results. You can find the distance between two points directly or change the direct route by indicating intermediate points that need to be avoided or, conversely, add and plot a route with intermediate points.

Find out the distance between settlements

The distance calculator between cities allows you to determine the distance between the starting and ending points, taking into account the route.

How to calculate a route between cities

To calculate the distance between cities, start entering the name of the starting point of your route in the "City from" field. Select the desired city from the drop-down list. In the same way, fill out the “City to” field and click on the “Calculate” button.

The word “city” is used only as the name of the form fields; here you can specify any locality and, for example, calculate the distance between villages or towns, etc.

As a result, you will get the shortest distance between the two settlements that you specified. The route will be displayed on the map and in the table. The table lists sections of the route (route) and indicates the distance between cities along the roads on each section of the route, as well as the time and total length of the journey.

Map route planning

Calculation of distance and fuel

As mentioned above, the service allows you not only to determine the distance between two points directly, but also to plot a route with intermediate points and exceptions specified by you. To calculate the driving route based on your parameters, open the “Advanced settings for calculating distances” window.

Calculation of vehicle distances with additional parameters

Fill in the additional settings fields you need.

Here you can indicate the countries and cities that you want to travel around, then they will be excluded from the final route. And also list which settlements you need to pass through so that they are added to the calculation of the car route. Leave these fields blank if you only need to find out the distance between two cities, simply indicate the points of departure and arrival in the appropriate fields of the form.

Calculation of road distance between cities

In the advanced options window, you can change the driving speed for different types of roads to get more accurate travel times.

How to calculate a car's fuel consumption? Fill out the form fields with your data, indicate the average fuel consumption of your car and the price of fuel. The service will calculate the volume and cost of fuel required for this route and display in the table the calculation of gasoline or diesel fuel consumption in liters and rubles.

Online fuel consumption calculation

Well, the last setting, it allows you to calculate the optimal route by time or length. Set the value you need: “Fastest route” to plot a road with minimal travel time or “Shortest route” to calculate the shortest route by distance.

Route calculation

After additional parameters have been specified, click the “Calculate” button again to calculate the distance and time along the new route.

If you want to remove specific sections of the route from your route, check the box next to them in the route calculation table and click the “Exclude marked” button. An online program for calculating distances between cities will plot a route that bypasses the specified routes.

Optimal route calculation 2.0

What is this? —

How it works? —

Google.Maps provides a route planning service for given points.
When you enter several addresses, the script analyzes all proposed routes and selects a sequence of bypassing points in which the total route distance is minimal.
Unfortunately, there is no way to influence the choice of a specific route from point A to point B.

Known Issues -

During the development and testing of this service, we encountered the following features of the Google.Maps API:

• sometimes the Google.Maps service does not return a response, this manifests itself in the stopped percentage of completion counter, this problem is solved by re-running the algorithm for calculating the optimal path;
• although Google claims that its service can build routes that include up to 25 intermediate points, in practice, building routes with a number of points of no more than 8-10 works consistently;
• unfortunately, in Russia the mapping service is not able to build routes between cities;
• Validation of some addresses fails - the map service returns neither success nor failure.

Development plans -

In new editions of the service for calculating the optimal route, the following functions will be added:

• building a route using the “old” algorithm (sequential selection of the next nearest point);
• building a route “As is” for a larger number of intermediate points (currently the general limit is 10 intermediate points);
• visual formation of a list of intermediate points (the user marks with the mouse cursor points that should be included in the route);
• visual formation of a sequence of bypassing points;
• saving the calculated route, displaying a previously calculated route via a link.

Please note that this web service only uses the capabilities of the Google.Maps API and is not a service of Integrated Programs LLC.
The proposed route is based on Google's service and may not take into account all factors affecting its length.
