\title{Spatial link distance measures}
\description{
Given a list of spatial neighbour links (a neighbours list of object type
\code{nb}), the function returns the Euclidean distances along the links
in a list of the same form as the neighbours list. If longlat = TRUE, Great
Circle distances are used.
}
\usage{
nbdists(nb, coords, longlat = NULL)
}
\arguments{
\item{nb}{an object of class \code{nb}}
\item{coords}{matrix of point coordinates or a SpatialPoints object}
\item{longlat}{TRUE if point coordinates are longitude-latitude decimal degrees, in which case distances are measured in kilometers; if coords is a SpatialPoints object, the value is taken from the object itself}
}
\value{
A list with class \code{nbdist}
}
