I found the below link very helpful in calculating the bearing between 2 points. However I am looking for something to calculate if the points are going from East-West, West-East, North-South or South-North. Direction between 2 Latitude/Longitude points in C#

Is there an easy way to find this out. Appreciate any help..thank you

Your question is not quite clear. Do you want to determine "rough" direction? – MBo Mar 04 '21 at 21:07
The direction between two point is the angle which is arcTan [(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)] – jdweng Mar 04 '21 at 22:26
Yes, I am trying to figure out which "rough" direction the 2nd point is from the 1st point..like SE or NW etc.. – Steve Ed Mar 05 '21 at 01:22
