Measuring Tool

In measuring users can change the measuring setting in system setup under measuring tool:

  • Absolute: Absolute bearing (aka full circle bearing or azimuth). Calculated clockwise from the north direction. Range of values [0, 360] degrees.
  • ReducedNDE: Reduced bearing (US army definition of bearing). Absolute bearing split into 4 quadrants (NE, SE, SW, NW). Calculated either from north (NE, NW quadrants) or south (SE, SW quadrants) direction. Range of values within quadrant is [0, 90] degrees. Displayed like “N 45.0° E”.
  • ReducedNED: Same as btReducedNDE, apart from a bit different format: “NE: 45.0°”.
  • Relative: Relative bearing, represents clockwise angle between direction of the previous line and the next line. Range of values [-180, 180] degrees. If the next line turns to the left the value is negative, to the right – positive.
  • Left Angle: Left inner angle formed by the previous line and next line. Range of values [0, 360] degrees. If the next line has the same direction as the previous one, the value is 180°.
  • Right Angle: Right inner angle formed by the previous line and the next line. Range of values [0, 360] degrees. If the next line has the same direction as the previous one, the value is 180°.
