About Compass

Compass with two modes: Military mode, Standart mode

Compass with two modes:

1. Military mode - low light.

2. Standart mode.

Both situations displaying azimuth angle in degrees (°).

Click on the compass for mode change.

An azimuth is an angular measurement in a spherical coordinate system. The vector from an observer (origin) to a point of interest is projected perpendicularly onto a reference plane; the angle between the projected vector and a reference vector on the reference plane is called the azimuth.

An example is the position of a star in the sky. The star is the point of interest, the reference plane is the horizon or the surface of the sea, and the reference vector points north. The azimuth is the angle between the north vector and the perpendicular projection of the star down onto the horizon.

Azimuth is usually measured in degrees (°). The concept is used in navigation, astronomy, engineering, mapping, mining and artillery.

Quite commonly, azimuths or compass bearings are stated in a system in which either north or south can be the zero, and the angle may be measured clockwise or anticlockwise from the zero. For example, a bearing might be described as "(from) south, (turn) thirty degrees (toward the) east" (the words in brackets are usually omitted), abbreviated "S30°E", which is the bearing 30 degrees in the eastward direction from south, i.e. the bearing 150 degrees clockwise from north.

From North:

North 0° or 360° South 180°

North-Northeast 22.5° South-Southwest 202.5°

Northeast 45° Southwest 225°

East-Northeast 67.5° West-Southwest 247.5°

East 90° West 270°

East-Southeast 112.5° West-Northwest 292.5°

Southeast 135° Northwest 315°

South-Southeast 157.5° North-Northwest 337.5°
