I am trying to plot points on a map for each ship locations (lat/long), where each point is a line whose angle (degrees) denotes ships heading and whose line length denotes it's speed. Unfortunately arrows(); p.arrows (sfsmisc) and ms.arrows (TeachingDemos) require start and end coordinates but I only have a single coordinate and an angle to work with. Can you suggest any other packages or commands that might allow me to plot this? Alternatively, can anyone suggest a method of making 'angle' a vector quantity when using the arrows function? Any advice would be much appreciated!
