The ‘u’ and ‘v’ are the ‘x’ and ‘y’ components of the plotted vector. To get the magnitude, use the hypot function, and to get the direction, use the atan2 function. You can use these little utility functions to convert the atan2 or atan2d output to [0,p2*pi] or [0,360] representation:
Angles360 = @(a) rem(360+a, 360); % For ‘atan2d’
Angles2pi = @(a) rem(2*pi+a, 2*pi); % For ‘atan2’
These results will correspond to the mathematical convention for angle orientation, not the compass convention.
