Description:
GreatCircle is an application for Ewe enabled computers to compute the great circle distance and bearing angle between two locations on Earth.
GreatCircle displays the following data:
- Latitude and longitude of two Earth locations -- selected from included Location Data CSV files and/or entered manually.
- The great circle distance between the locations in either: kilometers, nautical miles, statute miles, meters or feet.
- The great circle bearing angle in either: degrees or grads, from the 'From' locations to the 'To' location.
GreatCircle will accurately compute short distances and thus is useful for geocaching.
To use this version of GreatCircle you must install a Ewe VM (Virtual Machine) on your computer.
Ewe is a version of Java. It is very compact and efficient. It uses only about 2 Mbytes of memory. To learn more about Ewe please read the introduction on http://davidbray.org/mobile/.
