Description
Hello,
I am recently using mapdist() to calculate the distances between some cities in Taiwan:
``` r
library(ggmap)
from <- c("Taipei", "Taipei", "Taipei")
to <- c("Taichung", "Tainan", "Kaohsiung")
mapdist(from, to)
```
The results make sense to me:
Taipei > Taichung 165 km
Taipei > Tainan 310 km
Taipei > Kaohsiung 355 km
However, when I did the reverse, I got the following results:
``` r
from <- c("Taichung", "Tainan", "Kaohsiung")
to <- c("Taipei", "Taipei", "Taipei")
mapdist(from, to)
```
Taichung > Taipei 311 km
Tainan > Taipei 164 km
Kaohsiung > Taipei 356 km
The distances themselves are still correct, but they didn't line up with the city pairs. I wonder why this could happen. Is there any way to solve the problem? Thanks!
