bearing library

Functions

bearing(Point start, Point end, {bool calcFinal = false}) → num

Takes two Points and finds the geographic bearing between them, i.e. the angle measured in degrees from the north line (0 degrees) For example:

bearingRaw(Position start, Position end, {bool calcFinal = false}) → num

calculateFinalBearing(Point start, Point end) → num

Calculates Final Bearing

calculateFinalBearingRaw(Position start, Position end) → num

calculateRhumbBearing(Position from, Position to) → num

Returns the bearing from ‘this’ Point to destination Point along a rhumb line. Adapted from Geodesy: https://github.com/chrisveness/geodesy/blob/master/latlon-spherical.js Returns Bearing in degrees from north. example

rhumbBearing(Point start, Point end, {bool kFinal = false}) → num

Takes two Point and finds the bearing angle between them along a Rhumb line i.e. the angle measured in degrees start the north line (0 degrees) kFinal calculates the final bearing if true. Returns bearing from north in decimal degrees, between -180 and 180 degrees (positive clockwise) example:
