Great Circle calculation. Computes the shortest path between Departure position and Arrival position. Celestial navigation course for beginners. Voyage planning/passage planning tool. Single rhumb line and great circle calculations on an ellipsoid.
Online rhumb line calculations using the RhumbSolve utility. Rhumb Line calculation: Inverse: lat1 lon1 lat2 lon2. → azi12 s12. Direct: lat1 lon1 azi12 s12. → lat2 lon2. Input (ex. « 40.6 -73.8 49°01'N 2°33'E » [inverse], « 40d38'23"N 073d46'44"W 53d30' 5850e3 » [direct]): . Output format: Decimal degrees. Degrees minutes seconds.
Celestial navigation course for beginners. Voyage planning/passage planning tool. Single rhumb line and great circle calculations on an ellipsoid.
Calculation of a distance on loxodrome (rhumb line) and course angle (azimuth) between two points with a given geographical coordinates.
The first calculates a distance on loxodrome (rhumb line) and course angle (azimuth) between two points with given geographical coordinates. The second one outputs compass point given course angle in degrees.
Calculates the distance between two points of the Earth specified geodesic (geographical) coordinates along the shortest path - the great circle (orthodrome). Calculates the initial and final course angles and azimuth at intermediate points between the two given.
