rhumbBearing
Takes two points and finds the bearing angle between them along a Rhumb line
i.e. the angle measured in degrees start the north line (0 degrees)
Parameters
start
Coord starting Pointend
Coord ending Pointoptions
Object? Optional parameters

boolean calculates the final bearing if true (optional, default false
)
Examples
var point1 = turf.point([-75.343, 39.984], {"marker-color": "#F00"});
var point2 = turf.point([-75.534, 39.123], {"marker-color": "#00F"});
var bearing = turf.rhumbBearing(point1, point2);
var addToMap = [point1, point2];
point1.properties.bearing = bearing;
point2.properties.bearing = bearing;
Returns number bearing from north in decimal degrees, between -180 and 180 degrees (positive clockwise)
