Difference between Azimuth and Plane of reference

Azimuth vs. Plane of reference

An azimuth (from the pl. form of the Arabic noun "السَّمْت" as-samt, meaning "the direction") is an angular measurement in a spherical coordinate system. In celestial mechanics, the plane of reference (or reference plane) is the plane used to define orbital elements (positions).

Similarities between Azimuth and Plane of reference

Azimuth and Plane of reference have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Celestial equator, Longitude, Orbital inclination, Plane (geometry).

Celestial equator
