charting bearing and distance
I have four columns of information:
1) Latitude of the boat location
2) Longitude of the boat location
3) Distance of an animal from the boat
4) Bearing of the animal from the boat
Basically I have a "whale that is 350 ft at 220 degrees from a boat"
Each location of the animal is recorded with the distance and bearing from
the boat - but the boat remains in the same location
Is there any way to plot that on a chart, ideally with concentric rings of
equal distance values, to show the location of the boat (or even showing the
boat as a central point (lat and long are really not necessary at all) with
the subsequent locations of the animal in relation to that single point?
