Rhumb Line Calculator : Departure Point Destination Point; Latitude ° ' ° ' ...
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.
Rhumb line, Great circle calculations. Choose your calculation: Rhumb line calculation: Departure position (latitude, longitude) + Course and Distance, to compute Arrival position.
Calculation of a distance on loxodrome (rhumb line) and course angle (azimuth) between two points with a given geographical coordinates.
Use these functions to: Find distances and azimuths along great circle, geodesic, and rhumb line tracks. Find the coordinates of reckon points and antipodes. Find the coordinates of track points along great circle, geodesic, and rhumb line tracks. Find the intersection points of great circles, geodesics, and rhumb lines.
To Calculate Dlat when the distance and course are known: DLat = Dist x Cos(course) To Calculate Course to Steer (the rhumb line course between two points) Tan(course) = Dep ÷ D.Lat. To calculate Dlong (difference in longitude corresponding to the departure): DLong. = Dep. x Sec(Mean.Lat) or Dlong = Dep ÷ Cos(Mean.Lat) Worked Example.
Professional Navigation. Calculation of constant azimuth and rhumb line length. Calculates the azimuth and the distance by two given coordinate points. Calculations are performed by rhumb line ( loxodrome). Obtained azimuth is a constant - rhumb line crosses all meridians at the same angle.
