Package Exports

@turf/rhumb-bearing
@turf/rhumb-bearing/package.json

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@turf/rhumb-bearing) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

@turf/rhumb-bearing

rhumbBearing

Takes two points and finds the bearing angle between them along a Rhumb line i.e. the angle measured in degrees start the north line (0 degrees)

Parameters

start Coord starting Point
end Coord ending Point
options Object? Optional parameters
- options.final boolean calculates the final bearing if true (optional, default false)

Examples

var point1 = turf.point([-75.343, 39.984], {"marker-color": "#F00"});
var point2 = turf.point([-75.534, 39.123], {"marker-color": "#00F"});

var bearing = turf.rhumbBearing(point1, point2);

//addToMap
var addToMap = [point1, point2];
point1.properties.bearing = bearing;
point2.properties.bearing = bearing;

Returns number bearing from north in decimal degrees, between -180 and 180 degrees (positive clockwise)
