How It Works

â–¼

Azimuth is the angular measurement in a spherical coordinate system, representing the direction from one point to another on the Earth's surface.

Formula

The azimuth (θ) between two points with coordinates (lat1, lon1) and (lat2, lon2) is calculated using:

θ = atan2(sin(Δlon) * cos(lat2), cos(lat1) * sin(lat2) - sin(lat1) * cos(lat2) * cos(Δlon))

Where Δlon = lon2 - lon1, and all angles are converted to radians.

Compass Directions

The calculated azimuth is then converted to a compass direction:

  • 0° = North
  • 90° = East
  • 180° = South
  • 270° = West
