How to use this calculator
- Enter the start easting and northing.
- Enter the grid bearing and distance.
- Press Calculate for the end coordinates.
How it works
Forward computation: E₂ = E₁ + d·sin(bearing), N₂ = N₁ + d·cos(bearing), with the bearing measured clockwise from north.
Worked example
120 m at 45°. Adds ~84.85 m to both the easting and northing.
Frequently asked questions
Is the bearing from north or east?
From grid north, measured clockwise (0°–360°).
