GMSGeometryOffset
extern CLLocationCoordinate2D GMSGeometryOffset(CLLocationCoordinate2D from,
CLLocationDistance distance,
CLLocationDirection heading)
Returns the destination coordinate, when starting at from with initial heading, travelling
distance meters along a great circle arc, on Earth.
The resulting longitude is in the range [-180, 180).
Both coordinates must be valid.
