# Module rhumbBase

Base classes `RhumbBase` and `RhumbLineBase`, pure Python version of Karney's C++ classes Rhumb and RhumbLine from GeographicLib versions 2.0 and 2.2 and Karney's C++ example Rhumb intersect.

Class RhumbLine has been enhanced with methods `intersection2` and `nearestOn4` to iteratively find the intersection of two rhumb lines, respectively the nearest point on a rumb line along a geodesic or perpendicular rhumb line from an other point.

For more details, see the C++ GeographicLib documentation, especially the Class List, the background information on Rhumb lines, the utily RhumbSolve and Online rhumb line calculations.
