js百度地图计算点与折线最短距离

百度地图Android SDk中的方法，用js重写，原理不懂，实际使用时感觉有明显误差，但误差可以接受。

/**
 * 
 * @param linesPoint 折线点列表 Point(lng,lat)
 * @param point 计算最短距离点
 * @param map 百度地图实例，用于计算两点间距离
 * @returns {{distance: number, point: (*)}} 最短距离，点
 */
function getNearestPointFromLine(linesPoint, point, map) {
    var lineBeginPoint = linesPoint[0];
    var linePointSize = linesPoint.length;
    var closestPoint;
    var closestDistance = Infinity;
    for (var i = 1; i <= linePointSize - 1; i++) {
        var lineEndPoint = linesPoint[i];
        var closestPointByLine = getClosestPoint(point, lineBeginPoint, lineEndPoint);
        var distance = parseInt(map.getDistance(point, closestPointByLine));
        if (distance < closestDistance) {
            closestDistance = distance;
            closestPoint = closestPointByLine;
        }
        lineBeginPoint = lineEndPoint;
    }
    return {point: closestPoint, distance: closestDistance};
}

function getClosestPoint(target, lineBegin, lineEnd) {
    var p1 = (lineEnd.lng - lineBegin.lng) * (target.lng - lineBegin.lng) +
        (lineEnd.lat - lineBegin.lat) * (target.lat - lineBegin.lat);
    if (p1 <= 0.0) {
        return lineBegin;
    } else {
        var p2 = (lineEnd.lng - lineBegin.lng) * (lineEnd.lng - lineBegin.lng) +
