Azimuth is simply the angle, expressed in degrees ranging from 0° to 360°, between a fixed point (often true north) and the direction you are observing. It indicates the direction that an object is facing. When examining landscapes, it is particularly crucialContinue reading “Eco Flare: What is Azimuth?”
