nc:Orientation (nc:OrientationType)

A set of angles of rotation about the principle axes (normal, lateral, longitudinal) of a thing, relative to true north and the horizontal plane, measured in degrees.

View UML for type: nc:OrientationType

nc:Orientation is contained within these types:
nc:Orientation can contain:
  • nc:Azimuth360Value
        An orientation of something with respect to True North.
        (replacing nc:AzimuthAbstract)
  • nc:AzimuthDecimalValue
        An orientation of something with respect to True North.
        (replacing nc:AzimuthAbstract)
  • cbrn:Azimuth180Value
        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.
        (replacing nc:AzimuthAbstract)
  • nc:Inclination90PlusMinusValue
        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.
        (replacing nc:InclinationAbstract)
  • nc:Inclination90Value
        An orientation of an object with respect to the horizontal plane.
        (replacing nc:InclinationAbstract)
  • nc:InclinationDecimalValue
        An orientation of an object with respect to the horizontal plane.
        (replacing nc:InclinationAbstract)
  • nc:RollValue
        An angle of rotation of a thing about its longitudinal axis, measured in degrees between the lateral axis and the horizontal plane; negative values indicate the left side is rotated downward.
nc:Orientation can be contained in any of these elements:
