ios - How to find map annotations that fit my criteria

Question

I have a MapView with user location, and a bunch of Map annotations.

At first I want to show all the possible pins on the map. (succeeded in doing that)

Then I want to zoom in the map to show only the annotations that are within 50 KMs away from the userLocation annotation

How do i find these annotations?

Answer 1

- (CLLocation*)closestLocationToLocation:(CLLocation*)currLocation
{
    CLLocationDistance minDistance;

    CLLocation *closestLocation = nil;

    for (CLLocation *location in arrayOfLocations) {
        CLLocationDistance distance = [location distanceFromLocation:currLocation];

        if (distance <= minDistance
            || closestLocation == nil) {
            minDistance = distance;
            closestLocation = location;
        }
    }

    //closestLocation is now the location from your array which is closest to the current location or nil if there are no locations in your array.

    return closestLocation;

}
