How to calculate azimuth surveying?

The azimuth of a line is defined as the horizontal angle, measured with respect to the north direction (Meridian) in the clockwise direction and can be a value up to 360 degrees. It is also called as Whole Circle Bearing (WCB).

Conversion of Bearing to Azimuths: –

N.E. Direction (1st Quadrant),

• Azimuth = Bearing

S.E. Direction (2nd Quadrant),

• Azimuth = 180° – Bearing

S.W. Direction (3rd Quadrant),

• Azimuth =Bearing + 180°

N.W. Direction (4th Quadrant),

• Azimuth = 360° – Bearing
