This app calculates coordinates, distances and bearings for setting out of buildings, kerb lines etc.
Useful for Civil Engineering and site based work when away from a computer with Excel or expensive software.
Functions:
FIND WCB & DISTANCE:
Calculate the whole circle bearing (the clockwise angle from North to a given direction) by entering the coordinates (Easting and Northing) of two known points. The WCB will be given in the direction of Point 1 towards Point 2. The distance in metres is also displayed.
CO-ORD FROM WCB:
Enter the coordinates of a known point and the bearing and distance from this to the point you wish to calculate.
CO-ORD FROM REF LINE:
Enter two coordinated points (Easting and Northing) along a desired line and input the distance along the line from point 1 to the point you want to calculate. Perpendicular offsets from this line can also be computed. Positive values offset to the RHS of the line in the direction of Point 1 -> Point 2, negative values for LHS of line.

V1.1 - Bug fixes and New features
*Added Elevations option for 'Coordinate from Reference Line' function. This can be used to interpolate an elevation on a straight grade slope.
* Various layout updates.
* Setting page now works
* After user feedback, U.S. Survey Feet can now be used as a unit of measurement for displaying results.
V1.0 - Initial release!
