Re: Tool for analysis coverage on Google Earth
Hi, it seems that kml display polygon by lat/lon track, so we can draw from the start point (site location) to the next, and so on:
Formula: |
lat2 = asin(sin(lat1)*cos(d/R) + cos(lat1)*sin(d/R)*cos(θ)) |
|
lon2 = lon1 + atan2(sin(θ)*sin(d/R)*cos(lat1), cos(d/R)−sin(lat1)*sin(lat2)) |
|
θ is the bearing (in radians, clockwise from north);
d/R is the angular distance (in radians), where d is the distance travelled and R is the earth’s radius |

Please, correct me if I'm wrong in the formula.
y = (Math.Sin(((Azimuth / 180) * 3.14159265358979))) * (Distance)
x = (Math.Cos(((Azimuth / 180) * 3.14159265358979))) * (Distance)
DeltaArcoLatitude = (y / 1852) * 60
DeltaArcoLongitude = (x / 1852) * 60
