So I have a point dataset on circulation for the whole world. The data is unprojected. One of the attributes is a bearing for the atmospheric circulation, with a compass direction.
Now I want to reproject this, to for instance Winkel III - is there any way to reproject it so that the value 0 in the bearing attribute still points towards north? Reprojecting the location of the points is simple, the crux is how to recalculate the bearings!
What I think you want is to convert the true north value to a new field with a grid based bearing. If this is the problem you are in luck - there is a command for that! Not sure when it appeared 10.0(?) That refers to an earlier obsolete tool Calculate Geodesic Angle if you are still on 9.x

Excellent, thanks - just what I was looking for. Then I would have to give up the projection that I am currently using though (Wagner VII, which I use Global Mapper to project the data to) and using something else - but I can live with that. I didn't a quick search through the documentation, but I must have missed this one.
