Geomap - Addresses nearby

[only1perky]

Hi Guys,

 

I would like to implement a feature on my site showing places in my database nearby to a certain place.

 

I have implemented the googlemaps geocoding feature and I now can get the longitude and latitude or each address in my database when viewed.

 

How would I implement a feature that searches the database for places within say 0.5 miles and print out something like:

 

Places nearby: Place 1 (0.2 miles), Place 2 (0.4 miles), Place 3 (0.5 miles).

 

I really have no idea of what to do or where to start but have seen this feature on several sites so I know some of you genius' out there know how.

 

Any help would be hugely appreciated (especially if someone knows of a tutorial).

 

Thanks in advance.
