A direction in a polar coordinate system.
nc:Bearing holds other objects.
nc:Bearing can hold any of these following objects, starting with the most specific and becoming more generic as you move down the list:
An orientation of something with respect to True North.
Holds numbers.
An orientation of something with respect to True North.
Holds numbers.
An objects(i.e., instrument, detector, or item) orientation, with respect to True North. Its value is the angle subtended by a line from the center point of the object to True North in the horizontal plane and the line formed by the object's front-to-back axis projected onto the horizontal plane. The angle range is from "-180.0" to "+180.0" degrees. A value of zero implies the front of the object's body is pointed to True North; positive values imply the front is pointed to the east of True North; negative values imply the front is pointed to the west of True North.
Holds numbers.
An angle of rotation of a thing about its lateral axis, measured in degrees between the longitudinal axis and the horizontal plane; negative values indicate a downward rotation.
Holds numbers.
An orientation of an object with respect to the horizontal plane.
Holds numbers.
An orientation of an object with respect to the horizontal plane.
Holds numbers.
