iOS Radar Display of Map Points

Background:

Making a geotagging app where people tag places with photos and then people can look at the map and visit these places.

Question:

I want to present a radar screen in addition to the mapkit view. This radar would show the points near by locations mapped out on a radar and oriented to the compass of the device.

Existing questions: - I've seen lots of sdks / plugins suggested. But, I don't want to pay a license or have any branding. I am open to an open source solution - but it needs to be mature. But, I'm cool with developing myself just looking for suggestions on algorithms for laying out the points etc ...

I've created a unique type radar view to display map coordinates lat,lng on a circular view along with compass functionality. It's available on github.
