CoreLocationUtils

=================

A category with convenient methods for CLLocation, based on **http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong.html**

## Features

* Convenient CLLocation initializers:

  * initialize with latitude and longitude in radians

  * initialize with a pretty string format (e.g. latitude = @"34° 36' 12\" N" longitude = @"35° 12' 24\" W")

* Obtain coordinates in a pretty format

* Distance between coordinates using:

  * Haversine formula

  * Spherical Law of cosines formula

  * Pythagoras formula

  * Rhumb line formula

* Midpoint along a great circle path between coordinates

* Initial/final bearings to target location from source location

* Calculate target location with a given distance and bearing from source location

## Usage

Copy CLLocationUtils to your project, include CLLocation+Utils.h and start using!

Please check CLLocationUtilsTests for examples.
