THANK YOU! After reading several confusing blogs, articles, etc., this was exactly what I was looking for! Now wish me luck when I talk to my neighbor 😉
It should be written with like a dry erase marker or penciled in on a separate navigation log sheet next to a map waypoint; reverse azimuth, time frame of arrival, then the bearing adjustment shown in the video from that waypoint.
It would be helpful to have an appended photo of the quadrant/bearing diagram that we could photocopy onto a plastic sheet and stick on our Bruntons. I have a Brunton that reads in degrees, but would prefer one that reads in quadrants. I want to make an easy graphical overlay. When considering bedding attitudes, N45E is the same as S45W. It's the same planer feature. The dip direction is very important to understanding the feature. N45E, 15SE is an example of a common quadrant with a dip. Instead of Due East, I write N90E. As a geologist, we are generally trying to represent a planer feature, like a bedding plane or joint on a 2D map. It seems to me, that writing that a bed has a strike of S225 is not the correct way to describe it. It would be better to say that it is N45E (same as N45) and then give the dip direction and angle. The strike is a line that would have the same elevation at both ends, therefore it is not pointing to either the NE or the SW. It's level. As that is the case, why use bearing degrees unless you are referring to the plunge of a feature?
I don't know either, but maybe it's just an idiocy of the army, and they think they can mislead the stupid citizen. A position could be a top military secret, or counting to 360 might be too difficult. Just like with the MGRS system (also designed for the military). I've seen so many videos of that, which are often full of errors. The presenter always wears some kind of military-looking outfit. As if that makes it credible.
Looking for some confirmation. Long ago I read that you take a bearing with the quadrant system and you take a heading using the azimuth system. Have you ever come across this?
That's great! You should check out my videos on what I wish I had known going into Geology as a field of study/careeer: th-cam.com/play/PL-vzyMUHq3BZNYowtBWndf382nEblSm4o.html
So in your conversion from bearing to azimuth you only use even degrees, how about bearings that read S 46 degrees 11 minutes and 59 seconds how would those convert to an azimuth?
Great question! You would essentially convert the minutes and seconds to decimals. Here is a great video on how to do that: th-cam.com/video/6ovyeRepSQk/w-d-xo.html
Blaney Services, Sec. divided by 60 = ? Then take the result and add what the min. Is and divide that by 60 = ? Then add the result to the degree = ? Then revert back to the quadrant diagram he drew, if it’s between 360 and 90 it stays the same, if it’s between 90 and 180 then subtract 180. If it’s between 180 and 270 then add 180, if it’s between270 and 360 then subtract 360. Example: N49 50’ 29”w 29/60= 0.4833 0.4833 + 50 = 50.4833 50.833/60= 0.8413 Since the degree is in the quadrant between 270 and 360 we would subtract 360. Azimuth is 359.1586 Hope this helps.
Hello sir! Can I have a question can you answer this into quadrant notation and azimuthal notation? I'm a bit confuse on my class This are the questions Turn this into azimuthal notation 1.) N60W 2.) S20E 3.) N15E Turn this into quadrant notation 1.)75 degree 2.)355 degree 3.)100 degree Sorry I wasn't able to make degree sign 🙁 But can you please help me on this question? Thanks if you answer it
As an astronomer azimuth has always been a simple thing, easy to understand. As a hill walker, a bearing also is easy to understand, it's even the same as my marina mates. So who thought this definition of "bearing" was better? It's a mind-cluster fuck right up there with old money and imperial weights and measures. I can't even begin to think why surveyors think N25W is a useful term?
THANK YOU! After reading several confusing blogs, articles, etc., this was exactly what I was looking for! Now wish me luck when I talk to my neighbor 😉
Dude may god be with you magnificent man. You saved my butt. (I have exams on this tomorrow and I didnt understand when my teacher discussed this)
Semester test now
@@sirXabiso Test in 2 hours!
@@DeeJayCoolio how did your test regarding this topic go?
I have watched 3 of your videos till now, and you did a great job in all of them, Thanks
7 years later this still helped on my exam!😊❤❤
Thank you, Sir. I now understand my property's plat.
Wonderful. Good simply and easy. I thank you, Sir.
Glad it helped! Thank you for watching.
TYSM!! I did not understand this part at all when my teacher discussed this in class
This is very helping,welcome explain sir
I love your teaching sir

I would like to know if Surveyors first measure a traverse in whole circle bearings and than later convert to quadrant bearings when making a plot?❤👍
Explained very well. I learned this in school and in the job but this was good 👍
It's really helpful, thankyou so much!
I now this system, but never used it or saw someone using it.
Question: Who uses this system and why?
I don't know either, but maybe it's just an idiocy of the army, and they think they can mislead the stupid citizen. A position could be a top military secret, or counting to 360 might be too difficult.
Just like with the MGRS system (also designed for the military). I've seen so many videos of that, which are often full of errors. The presenter always wears some kind of military-looking outfit. As if that makes it credible.
Can you add a link to the compass pictured?
Yes please - I'd like to print this out & take it to the PE exam!
I’m reading a property survey and it reads S38-17E How do I find that on a quadrant compass?
Thank uu form india 🇮🇳
Looking for some confirmation. Long ago I read that you take a bearing with the quadrant system and you take a heading using the azimuth system. Have you ever come across this?
By the way. Excellent video. Leave it to an American to be spot on.
Good videos. I am going to school in the spring for geology.
That's great! You should check out my videos on what I wish I had known going into Geology as a field of study/careeer: th-cam.com/play/PL-vzyMUHq3BZNYowtBWndf382nEblSm4o.html
Excellent Explanation. Thanks
can you tell me where to get the compass thank you steve.
where can i find that compass thank you steve

Blaney Services,
Sec. divided by 60 = ? Then take the result and add what the min. Is and divide that by 60 = ? Then add the result to the degree = ? Then revert back to the quadrant diagram he drew, if it’s between 360 and 90 it stays the same, if it’s between 90 and 180 then subtract 180. If it’s between 180 and 270 then add 180, if it’s between270 and 360 then subtract 360.
Example:
N49 50’ 29”w
29/60= 0.4833
0.4833 + 50 = 50.4833
50.833/60= 0.8413
Since the degree is in the quadrant between 270 and 360 we would subtract 360.
Azimuth is 359.1586
Hope this helps.
I need to know if bearing N00⁰E how we can change to azimuth or the value from bearing to azimuth?
A few hours before my exam and I'm here
You're a life saver!!
Well explained thank you soooooo much
Hello sir!
Can I have a question can you answer this into quadrant notation and azimuthal notation?
I'm a bit confuse on my class
This are the questions
Turn this into azimuthal notation
1.) N60W
2.) S20E
3.) N15E
Turn this into quadrant notation
1.)75 degree
2.)355 degree
3.)100 degree
Sorry I wasn't able to make degree sign 🙁
But can you please help me on this question?
Thanks if you answer it
Good explanation and brief. Thanks
Awesome!! Thank you... big help!
Can I have a question sir
Still don't know when to add or subtract
Astro nw subtract from 360
Sw add 180
Se subtract from 180
Ne number stays the same..
dalbyonemanband Is this true?
ʏᴏᴜsᴇғ ᴋʜᴀʟᴇᴅ yes
maaaaan u made it 360 easier 🙃 thx a lot
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
What about min, and sec. you should have included that.
PERFECT! Thank You.
Very good thanks
When do I add or subtract?
Southeast
Azimuth=180 - bearing
Bearing= Azimuth - 180
Southwest
Azimuth= 180 + bearing
Bearing= Azimuth -180
Northwest
Azimuth= 360 - bearing
Bearing=360 - Azimuth
@Eduard Romeo Serquina yes
My man thanks
Five stars ***** : ). Many thanks
Hi sir can you teach us how to compute latitude and departure?
fantastic video
Practically speaking, is there really any time when you would use quadrant rather than azimuth. It just seems more complicated and unnecessary
You are a life save my man . Thanks so much this going to help me pass my wildland fire technology class .
I love you man

Great video, much appreciated.
Thanks a lot
Can you post a strike and dip video please
Vanilla2154 sounds like a great idea. I'll get on it!
definitely
I DONT UNDERSTAND
thanks alot
goodchitgoodchit
Modules anyone?
Ig it's just me 😌✊
Me too🙂
And Map coordinates
Amazing 10/10
