EAPS 10000 Homework 2 Information: Measuring directions with “points of a compass” and azimuth. Compass direction: N NNE NE ENE E ESE SE SSE S SSW SW WSW W WNW NW NNW Equivalent Azimuth: 0 22.545 67.590 112.5135 157.5 180 202.5225 247.5270 292.5315 337.5 Azimuth (similar to compass directions) is the angle in degrees measured clockwise from North (0 or 360 degrees). For example, for the direction shown (bold arrow; and the angle shown by the dashed lines), the azimuth is 135o and the compass direction is SE. Azimuth = 0o A 45o 315o Angle 270o 90o 135o 225o 180o Direction
