Determining the direction the car is moving on the 32 cardinal system

I have setup a tracker to dump data to my server but looking at the data,i cant really know the direction is moving to from the point it is currently. lets say its at point 'A' with longitude,latitude,speed and beating in degrees.

Can i use the available data to know the directing the car is moving to on the 32 point cardinal system,i.e 30kms, moving north?

Thanks

Yes, the course information is available in the "state" panel, but it's only 8 point system, not 32.

I couldnt find state field in the position table of mysql.should it be there?

In the position table there is a course field.

The course is given in degrees. How do it determine if that is north,east,west or south?

North is 0 degrees, and then it goes clockwise from there. For example, east is 90 degrees.

Thanks Anton.
