turf destination module
npm install @turf/destinationTakes a [Point][1] and calculates the location of a destination point given a distance in
degrees, radians, miles, or kilometers; and bearing in degrees.
This uses the [Haversine formula][2] to account for global curvature.
* origin [Coord][3] starting point
* distance [number][4] distance from the origin point
* bearing [number][4] ranging from -180 to 180
* options [Object][5] Optional parameters (optional, default {})
* options.units Units Supports all valid Turf [Units][6] (optional, default 'kilometers')
* options.properties [Object][5] Translate properties to Point (optional, default {})
``javascript
var point = turf.point([-75.343, 39.984]);
var distance = 50;
var bearing = 90;
var options = {units: 'miles'};
var destination = turf.destination(point, distance, bearing, options);
//addToMap
var addToMap = [point, destination]
destination.properties['marker-color'] = '#f00';
point.properties['marker-color'] = '#0f0';
`
Returns [Feature][7]<[Point][1]> destination point
