Takes a Point and calculates the location of a destination point given a distance in degrees, radians, miles, or kilometers; and bearing in degrees. This uses the Haversine formula to account for global curvature.

var point = turf.point([-75.343, 39.984]);
var distance = 50;
var bearing = 90;
var options = {units: 'miles'};
var destination = turf.destination(point, distance, bearing, options);
//addToMap
var addToMap = [point, destination]
destination.properties['marker-color'] = '#f00';
point.properties['marker-color'] = '#0f0';
Returns Feature<Point> destination point
