2. Great-circle navigation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great-circle_navigation

   The distance along the great circle will then be s 12 = Rσ 12, where R is the assumed radius of the Earth and σ 12 is expressed in radians. Using the mean Earth radius , R = R 1 ≈ 6,371 km (3,959 mi) yields results for the distance s 12 which are within 1% of the geodesic length for the WGS84 ellipsoid; see Geodesics on an ellipsoid for ...

9. Geometric design of roads - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_design_of_roads

   Circular curves are defined by radius (tightness) and deflection angle (extent). The design of a horizontal curve entails the determination of a minimum radius (based on speed limit), curve length, and objects obstructing the view of the driver. [4] Using AASHTO standards, an engineer works to design a road that is safe and comfortable.
