Larry, I don't have a tool designed for this yet. However, I've done 80% of the work in my JTS Warped library. If you use this library you could easily import a list of bearings and distances from a text file and use it to create feature geometry. (Or take a bearing and distance entered from a GUI and do the same thing.)
The web page for JTS Warped is here: http://surveyos.sourceforge.net/jts_warped.html Here is the Javadoc for the first release of JTS Warped: http://surveyos.sourceforge.net/jts_warped_api/ The source code can be found on my SVN: http://surveyos.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/surveyos/java/jts_warped/branches/release-00-10-00/src/ You can download a Jar file for JTS Warped here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/surveyos/files/ Look for the 00.10.00 release. To get a JTS LineString from an angle and distance, follow these basic steps: 1) Create a BasicSurveyorsAngle that represents the direction of the line. 2) Use the BasicSurveyorsAngle to create a BasicSurveyorsDirectoin object. 3) Call the getLineStringAlongDirection method of the BasicSurveyorsDirectoin object. You need to provide the start point coordinate and the distance of the line to this method. See: http://surveyos.sourceforge.net/jts_warped_api/net/surveyos/sourceforge/jtswarped/angles/BasicSurveyorsDirection.html The only other class you might need is one that allows you to convert between different angle formats: http://surveyos.sourceforge.net/jts_warped_api/net/surveyos/sourceforge/jtswarped/angles/AngleFormatUtilities.html I hope this helps Larry. If you have questions, let me know. I'd be interested to see what (if anything) you can do with my code.
