Hi,

Radial and Aerial distance are two different methods used by schools to shortlist candidates in their vicinity. 

Generally schools clearly mention which criterion they will use to measure distance. 

Radial Distance (dont confuse it with Euclidean distance) is a distance between Point A to Point B traveling via Road. Simply use Google maps, fill To and From details and it will suggest you shortest path to reach your destination. 

Aerial Distance is measured through the air as opposed to the ground travel. Use Google maps to measure this distance, Right click on your starting point, choose Measure Distance, now click on point B (Destination). At the bottom you will see the total distance in KM's. Simple.

Check the admission notifications for the respective school's to know which method they are adopting. 

All the Best.
