Edge Labels with distance between vertices

Question

I am trying to make traveling salesman type graph using the locations of NFL stadiums as the vertices. I need to get the EdgeLabels to appear was the distance between the vertices. I was able to slightly modify some code from

Building graph based on the cities connection?

but I am still unsure about how to incorporate the distances.

Answer 1

In Mathematica 10 it is easy to do with GeoDistance. Simply replace your g with the following lines

stateToLocation = 
  Rule[First[#], ToExpression[Rest[#]]] & /@ (StringSplit[stateData, 
     ","]);
edgeLabels = 
  Thread[Rule[
    EdgeList[g], (EdgeList[g] /. numberToState /. stateToLocation) /. 
     UndirectedEdge -> GeoDistance]];
g = Graph[connections /. stateToNumber, 
   VertexCoordinates -> vertexCoordinates, 
   VertexLabels -> numberToState, VertexShapeFunction -> "Circle", 
   VertexSize -> 1, VertexLabelStyle -> Directive[Black, 7], 
   EdgeLabels -> edgeLabels];
