For each location of type i, I need to compute the distances to every location of type j. > Robert Picard sent the code below, which works as advertised - many thanks, Robert! Now I have a slightly different problem: I have two kinds of locations in the data, i and j. Geodist lat1 lon1 `=lat2' `=lon2', gen(d) * This example require my -geodist- program available on SSC Updated version of my example the looping is over all observations of Set of observations side-to-side and it's easier to manage. To append both datasets but to do an unmatched merge. If you have two kinds of locations, then the easiest solution is not Notice: On April 23, 2014, Statalist moved from an email list to a forum, based at.
