If you are using a projected coordinate system, finding a location from a bearing and a distance is easy If you are using a projected coordinate system, finding a location from a bearing and a distance is easy newX = startX + distance * sin(bearing/180*pi) newY = startY + distance * cos(bearing/180*pi) Distance is in map units, so if you are working in UTM then thatβs meters. Bearing is in compass degrees, due north is 0, due east is 90, etc.
