point_from_distance

Find latitude and longitude for a certain distance and azimuth from a point.

internal

Functions for the retrieval, manipulation, and visualization
of 'geospatial' data, with an aim towards producing '3D' landscape
visualizations in the 'Unity' '3D' rendering engine. Functions are
also provided for retrieving elevation data and base map tiles from
the 'USGS' National Map <https://apps.nationalmap.gov/services/>.
