By adding "willdurand/propel-geocodable-behavior": "dev-master" in composer.json you can use this custom GeoCodable Behavior. Or you can download GeocodableBehavior.php from GitHub repo for this behavior. and put it in /src directory or somewhere, then register this class in your application autoloader. If you want to perform all this task by composer then just run composer update and everything will be ready for you to use.

After that, now we will go for propel’s schema.xml file where all the database definitions are mentioned. Here, we will add the following xml node in the before </table> (which table will hold latitude and longitude).
<behavior name="geocodable" /> now run the propel-gen command to update propel’s classmap and then update your main database table structure cause it will add two column (latitude, longitude) automatically when you will update your database table structure.

Now you are ready to use the power of this GeoCodable behavior’s power.

Basically, the behavior will add:

• two new columns to your model (latitude and longitude);
• four new methods to the ActiveRecord API (getDistanceTo(), isGeocoded(),
  getCoordinates(), and setCoordinates());
• two new methods to the ActiveQuery API (filterByDistanceFrom(),
  filterNear()).

ActiveRecord API

getDistanceTo() returns the distance between the current object and a given one.
The method takes two arguments:

• a geocoded object;
• a measure unit (KILOMETERS_UNIT, MILES_UNIT, or NAUTICAL_MILES_UNIT
  defined in the Peer class of the geocoded model).

isGeocoded() returns a boolean value whether the object has been geocoded,
or not.

getCoordinates(), setCoordinates() allows to quickly set/get latitude,
and longitude values.

ActiveQuery API

filterByDistanceFrom() takes five arguments:

• a latitude value;
• a longitude value;
• a distance value;
• a measure unit (KILOMETERS_UNIT, MILES_UNIT, or NAUTICAL_MILES_UNIT
  defined in the Peer class of the geocoded model);
• a comparison sign (Criteria::LESS_THAN is the default value).

It will add a filter by distance on your current query and returns itself for
fluid interface.

filterNear takes three arguments:

• a model object;
• a distance value;
• a measure unit (KILOMETERS_UNIT, MILES_UNIT, or NAUTICAL_MILES_UNIT
  defined in the Peer class of the geocoded model).
