Comment (by hamish):

 Hi,

 does GRASS's m.cogo module help? or could it be expanded to be more
 useful?
   http://grass.osgeo.org/grass63/manuals/html63_user/m.cogo.html

 "A simple utility for converting bearing and distance measurements to
 coordinates and vice versa."


 I suppose a good check for the module would be to run it for a closed loop
 and check that the endpoint matches the starting point. Probably have to
 do that with fake data as what is printed on a survey sheet might not be
 exact which may lead to small circuit errors.
