Hello.

I have a vessel reporting it's position, speed and direction to me at
given intervals. I am plotting this information into Google Maps, with
polylines, so that I can track my vessel. Pretty much straight forward
and simple.

But what I would also like to do, is mark its last known position with
an arrow or something similar to indicate the vessels direction and
speed without showing the popWin. My thought is to calculate my
vessels position in, say 4 hours, and draw a polyline to this future
location. By calculating the position in 4 hours, my polyline would be
longer or shorter based on the vessel's speed.. But I cannot figure
how to calculate the vessels new position based on it's current
position, speed, direction and timelevel...

Any thought would be greatly appreciated.

What I would like to accomplish is something similar to what can be
found in this webpage:

Thanks in advance
