m per degree longitude on the equator |
Wgs84A |
Semi-Mayor Axis of the WGS ellipsoid |
Wgs84F |
Flattening "f" of the WGS84 ellipsoid (1.0 / 298.25722357) |
Angle |
Calculate the difference between two angles, return degrees. |
Aviatic |
Converts an angle in aviatic definition to mathematic definition. Aviatic angles are in degrees, where 0 degrees is north, counting clockwise, mathematic angles are in radians, starting east and going counterclockwise. |
Calc |
Calculate the coordinate one will be when traveling for the given distance in the given direction |

Calculate |
Calculate a list of waypoints along the route from start to end. |
Calculate |
Calculate a list of waypoints along the route from start to end. |
Calculate |
Calculate the velocity towards (or away from) the target. This is often also called VMG (=Velocity made good) |
Cross |
Computes cross-track error, that is the distance the current position is away from the route from origin to destination |
Degrees |
Convert a value to radians. |
Dist |
Returns the distance and direction between two points on the globe |
Dist |
Returns the distance and direction between two points on the globe |

Returns the distance and direction between two points on the globe |
Radians |
Convert angle from mathematic to aviatic. See also AviaticToRadians() |
Radians |
Converts an angle in radians to angle in decimal degrees |
