A method and a system are provided for allowing determination of a direction and distance from a tool to anomaly in a formation. The apparatus for performing the method includes at least one transmitter and at least one receiver. An embodiment of the method includes transmitting electromagnetic signals from the at least one transmitter through the formation near the wellbore and detecting responses at the at least one receiver induced by the electromagnetic signals. The method may further include determining the direction from the device to the anomaly based on the detected responses. The method may also include calculating at least one of an apparent azimuth angle and an apparent dip angle based on the responses, monitoring the at least one calculated apparent angle over time, and determining the direction to the anomaly after the at least one monitored apparent angle deviates from a zero value.
