(Astronomi) Azimuth, bir yön tarifinin yatay bileşenidir. Ufuk çevresinde saat yönünde ölçülür. Astronomide ve jeodezide kuzeyden doğuya doğru, yerölçümde güneyden batıya doğru ölçülür. Genellikle açı derecesi cinsinden belirtilir
(Askeri) SEMT; İSTİKAMET AÇISI; GÜNEŞ AÇISI; DRİZE (DZ): Kuzeyden, saat yelkovanı dönüş istikametinde, genel olarak, derece veya milyem cinsinden ölçülmüş yatay açı olarak ifade edilen istikamet. Böylece, istikamet açıları, faydalanılan kuzeye göre, hakiki (true), grid (grid), veya manyetik (magnetic) semt açısıdır
An arc of the horizon intercepted between the meridian of the place and a vertical circle passing through the center of any object; as, the azimuth of a star; the azimuth or bearing of a line surveying
the horizontal angle or bearing of a point measured from the true (astronomic) north Used to refer to a compass on which the movable dial (used to read direction) is numbered in 360° See: Bearing and Compass
A horizontal angle reckoned clockwise from the meridian, especially the horizontal direction of a celestial point from a terrestrial point, expressed as the angular distance from a reference direction (hence often designated as true, magnetic, compass or relative, depending on the reference) When applied to current or stream, it is a direction toward which such a current or stream is flowing, and usually reckoned from the north point
The angle between an antenna's beam and the meridian plane, measured along the horizon Along with "elevation," azimuth is a coordinate used to precisely point an antenna at a particular satellite
n The angle or number of degrees between one fixed point and another measured clockwise from the north The markings on a compass are referred to as azimuths rather than degrees, e g , azimuth 50 instead of 50 degrees
The pointing direction of an antenna measured in the local horizontal plane in a clockwise direction from north It is the horizontal co-ordinate that is used to align a satellite antenna See also Elevation
An angle measured from the north point eastward (or, alternatively, from the south point westward) to the intersection between the horizon plane and the vertical circle passing through a celestial object and the zenith
Angular distance measured clockwise around the observer's horizon in units of degrees; astronomers usually take north to be 0 degrees, east to be 90 degrees, south to be 180 degrees, and west to be 270 degrees
Angle between the north direction and the projection of the surface normal into the horizontal plane; measured clockwise from north As applied to the PV array, 180 degree azimuth means the array faces due south
position on the celestial sphere that is the number of degrees along the horizon away from the exact north point Exact North = 0°, exact East = 90°, exact South = 180°, exact West = 270°, exact North = 360° (or 0°) Horizontal position of an object
The direction, in degrees referenced to true north, that an antenna must be pointed to receive a satellite signal (compass direction) The angular distance is measured in a clockwise direction
The horizontal angle used in combination with elevation to describe the location of an object in the sky Compass directions such as north and south are azimuths
the angular distance measured clockwise along the horizon from a specified reference point (usually north) to the intersection with the great circle drawn from the zenith through a body on the celestial sphere
A surveying term that references the angle measured clockwise from any meridian (the established line of reference) The bearing is used to designate direction The bearing of a line is the acute horizontal angle between the meridian and the line
the distance, measured in degrees, along the horizon, eastward (clockwise as viewed from above) from the north point of the horizon to the place where a vertical circle through the star, or other object, intersects the horizon
Azimuth of a body is the arc of the horizon intercepted between the north or south point and the foot of the vertical circle passing through the body It is reckoned in degrees from either the north or south point clockwise entirely around the horizon Azimuth of a current is the direction toward which it is flowing, and is usually reckoned from the north point
