# Compute distance between geopoints[¶](https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/preparation/processors/geo-distance.html#compute-distance-between-geopoints "Permalink to this headline")

This processor computes the distance between a geopoint column and another geopoint.

You can compare a column with:

* A specific geopoint

* Another geopoint column

The computation outputs a number of distance units (kilometers, miles) in another column.
