Hello all,
I have a centroid (center pivot) with a known Longitude/Latitude. I have a distance, in feet, away from the known center point for both Latitude(X)/Longitude(Y). I need to calculate the new Latitude/Longitude for each point so that I can create a yield map. In the example below, I need to go 1278.303527 feet to the West of 44.111834 Lat and 195 feet north of Longitude -120.102744. There are 48K records that need a new X/Y calculated. Any assistance greatly appreciated.


X Y Yield X and Y are distance from the pivot in feet.
-1278.303527 195 32.60610248 Yield is in tons per acre.
-1278.303527 175 17.17232552
-1278.303527 165 0.501224722 Pivot
-1278.303527 155 4.907260956 44.111834 LAT 44° 6' 42.6"
-1278.303527 145 4.297264892 -120.102744 LONG -120° 6' 9.88"
-1278.303527 135 1.531962682
