File Information
Description

This function finds the velocity of a 2-dimensional planar wave from at least 2 sensors, by specifying its location (x,y) or (lon,lat) and its respective arrival time.

It returns the speed and direction (or tracking if coordinates were given):
>> [VEL,DIR] = velocity_triangulation(x,y,time,TOL);
where TOL is a tolerance time. You may get a figure with the results, like the one shown in the screenshot. Just take a look to the optional arguments.

Enjoy it!
Any comments and bugs reports will be very appreciated!

MATLAB release MATLAB 7.7 (R2008b)
Other requirements If coordinated are use, the program requires the Mapping Toolbox or the M_MAP Toolbox by Rich Pawlowicz.
