javascript - Calculate point between two coordinates based on a percentage

Question

I am looking for a function that returns a point (lat, long) between two points (where I also specify their lat, long) and that point is based on a distance percentage.

So, I specify Lat1, Lon1, Lat2, Lon2 and a % on the function and, it returns a point, for example, 20% distant from the first point to the second.

Answer 1

Assuming the coordinate is a decimal number. You can use this equation.

function midpoint(lat1, long1, lat2, long2, per) {
     return [lat1 + (lat2 - lat1) * per, long1 + (long2 - long1) * per];
}

Return a new desired coordinate of [lat, long], based on the percentage (such as per=0.2 for 20%).
