Function File: [lato,lono] = reckon(lat,lon,range,azimuth)
Function File: [lato,lono] = reckon(lat,lon,range,azimuth,units)

Compute the coordinates of the end-point of a displacement on a sphere. lat,lon are the coordinates of the starting point, range is the covered distance of the displacements along a great circle and azimuth is the direction of the displacement relative to the North. The units of all input and output parameters can be either ’degrees’ (default) or ’radians’.

This function can also be used to define a spherical coordinate system with rotated poles.
