Calculate distance, bearing and more between latitude/longitude points

All the formulas are adapted from http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong.html

Calculate distance between 2 points

Geocalc.distance_between([50.0663889, -5.7147222], [58.6438889, -3.07])
# => 968853.5464535094

Get destination point given distance from start and end point

Geocalc.destination_point([50.0663889, -5.7147222], [58.6438889, -3.07], 100_000)
# => {:ok, [50.95412546615634, -5.488452905258299]}

Get destination point given distance and bearing from start point

Geocalc.destination_point([50.0663889, -5.7147222], 2.123, 100_000)
# => {:ok, [49.58859917965055, -4.533613856982982]}

Calculate bearing from start and end points

Geocalc.bearing([50.0663889, -5.7147222], [58.6438889, -3.07])
# => 0.1591708517503001

Get intersection point given start points and bearings

Geocalc.intersection_point([50.0663889, -5.7147222], 2.123, [55.0663889, -15.7147222], 2.123)
# => {:ok, [48.04228582473962, -1.0347033632388496]}

Geocalc.intersection_point([50.0663889, -5.7147222], 2.123, [50.0663889, -5.7147222], 2.123)
# => {:error, "No intersection point found"}
