\title{Bearing and Distance}
\usage{
bearing.distance(x, y, distance, azimuth, EastOfNorth = TRUE)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{x coordinate}

\item{y}{y coordinate}

\item{distance}{Distance to new point (in same units as x,y)}

\item{azimuth}{Azimuth to new point}

\item{EastOfNorth}{Specified surveying convention}
}
\value{
a new point representing location of baring and distance
}
\description{
Calculates a new point [X,Y] based on defined 
             bearing and distance
}
\details{
East of north is a surveying convention and defaults to true.
