"Spatial Clustering with RapidMiner"

Hello,
for an analysis of POis, I would like to consider a spatial clustering use case. Normally, DBSCAN is suitable for using clustering use cases based on geo positions (lat, long). But what distance measure should be used? The Haversine Distance is not part of RaoidMiner. Is there also a possibility to use lat/long and nominal values for a clustering analysis?
In the RapidMiner forum they reference to external libraries:
