Navigation Calculators

Compute true course and distance between points.

Enter lat/lon of points, select distance units and earth model and click "compute". Lat/lons may be entered in DD.DD, DD:MM.MM or DD:MM:SS.SS formats.

Note that if either point is very close to a pole, the course may be inaccurate, because of its extreme sensitivity to position and inevitable rounding error.

Compute lat/lon given radial and distance from a known point

Enter lat/lon of initial point, true course and distance. Select distance units and earth model and click "compute". Lat/lons may be entered in DD.DD, DD:MM.MM or DD:MM:SS.SS formats.

Note that the starting point cannot be a pole.

Calculation of Great Circle navigation and waypoints.

Without considering factors such as weather, winds, magnetic deviation and currents, the great circle track is the shortest distance between any two places on the surface of the Earth.

To navigate a great circle track adjustment of the airplane's course is continuous because the great circle track is a curve when plotted on a Mercator Chart.

Once you enter the latitude and longitude for origin and destination, tap 'Calculate' to display the 'true' course and distance.

To get waypoint information, enter the desired longitude limitation in the waypoint section then tap 'Calculate.'
