The NaPTAN imports of UK bus stops include a bearing field using the 8
cardinal points (N, NE, E ...). Christophe's NOVAM map (
http://is.gd/689lG ) uses this bearing to show the direction the bus
sets off in from that stop on the overlay. Even though there are only 8
possible directions it still works well. Maybe bearing would help for
many things that need a direction.
Cheers, Chris
