I committed some major improvements to GeoKit recently. Head over to GeoKit at Rubyforge for an updated readme and API. Here is a rundown of the improvements. As always, install with:
sudo script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/geokit/trunk
New Functionality
* auto geocoding: an option to automatically geocode a model's address field on create
* in-memory sort-by-distance for arrays of location objects
* bounding box queries: Location.find :all, :bounds=>[sw,ne]
* improved performance by automatically adding a bounding box condition to radial queries
* new Bounds class for in-memory bounds-related operations
* ability to calculate heading and midpoint between two points
* ability to calculate endpoint given a point, heading, and distance
