我正在为移动设备开发“指南针”。我有以下几点:
point 1 (current location): Latitude = 47.2246, Longitude = 8.8257
point 2 (target location): Latitude = 50.9246, Longitude = 10.2257
我也有以下信息(来自我的安卓手机):
The compass-direction in degree, which bears to the north.
For example, when I direct my phone to north, I get 0°
如何创建一个“类似指南针”的箭头来显示指向该点的方向?
这有数学问题吗?
编辑:好的,我找到了一个解决方案,它看起来像这样:
/**
* Params: lat1, long1 => Latitude and Longitude of current point
* lat2, long2 => Latitude and Longitude of target point
*
* headX => x-Value of built-in phone-compass
*
* Returns the degree of a direction from current point to target point
*
*/
function getDegrees(lat1, long1, lat2, long2, headX) {
var dLat = toRad(lat2-lat1);
var dLon = toRad(lon2-lon1);
lat1 = toRad(lat1);
lat2 = toRad(lat2);
var y = Math.sin(dLon) * Math.cos(lat2);
var x = Math.cos(lat1)*Math.sin(lat2) -
Math.sin(lat1)*Math.cos(lat2)*Math.cos(dLon);
var brng = toDeg(Math.atan2(y, x));
// fix negative degrees
if(brng<0) {
brng=360-Math.abs(brng);
}
return brng - headX;
}
