#EQUATION CALCULATOR FROM POINTS HOW TO#
So if you are from GIS field or dealing with GIS application, you should know bearing and how to calculate bearing with formula. Calculating Bearing or Heading angle between two points: You must refer Haversine distance formula before going through this post.

Generally a ‘compass’ is an instrument, which gives you the direction information for navigation.

This means to reach a particular destination you need to adjust your heading direction with the bearing. Bearing angle plays a imįormula to Find Bearing or Heading angle between two points: Latitude Longitudeīearing can be defined as direction or an angle, between the north-south line of earth or meridian and the line connecting the target and the reference point. While Heading is an angle or direction where you are currently navigating in.

So what’s the heading or bearing? How we can find bearing between the two points on earth, with the formula? Or How we can find the other point, when one point, actual traveled distance and bearing is given? Let us discuss all this points, followed with the example and experiment with the tool for calculating bearing provided in the post. Bearing or heading angle is used to define navigation generally in the field of aircraft or marine or Vehicle navigation or while working for land surveying. Formula to Find Bearing or Heading angle between two points.
