bearing

Calculates the bearing between two points, given each point's latitude and longitude coordinates

Collection of conversion, analytical, geodesic, mapping, and
plotting functions. Used to support packages and code written by
researchers at the Southwest Fisheries Science Center of the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
