Calc heading and distance between 2 lat/long points

Post by Jaymer »

Does anyone know of a plug-in that I could pass it two pairs of latitude and longitude and have it tell me a heading and a direction to get there?
Like “approximately 20 feet north east “

Are you using MSSQL on the backend? They have a GEOMETRY attribute which would do what you want.
