I already asked her if she has access to GIS software and she does not. She's looking for something on the web. She is in San Francisco, so I could refer her to UC Berkeley Map Collection!

Apologies for cross-posting. I'm trying find a resource which will calculate the radius distance from an specific address. We are trying to determine if two addresses are within a 35 mile radius of each other. Mapping services like mapquest etc. won't work because it calculates the distance via roads not the true distance "as the crow flys". I've checked the Librarian's index to the internet, my local public library and the USGS and Census Bureau's websites and searched the Stumpers archives but am not sure if I'm even using the right terminology in searching for this as I'm way out of my normal area of expertise. And of course this is a "needed it yesterday" assignment. Any suggestions or guidance are greatly appreciated. Thanks, Camille D.
