This class can perform several types of calculations with geographic coordinates.
It can take the longitude and latitude of two points in the Earth globe and perform calculations like the surface distance between those two points using the Havesine formula, the initial bearing angle.
The class can also mirror a bearing angle over the x or the y axis, or calculate of coordinates of a location that is at the distance of another location with a given bearing angle.

Geographic coordinates are very useful to determine the proximity of a set of different locations. There are many solutions to determine the distance between two geographic locations from their coordinates. The class goes further and implements other types of calculations that include for instance the bearing angle of lines that connect different locations. Manuel Lemos |
