  2. Depression range finder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depression_range_finder

    A depression position finder measured the range to a distant target (such as a ship) by solving a right triangle in which the short side was the height of the instrument above mean low water; one angle was the constant right angle between the short side and the plane of the ocean, and the second angle was the depression angle from the horizontal of the instrument as it sighted down from a fire ...

  3. Strike and dip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strike_and_dip

    The angle of the intersection with the green plane is the red plane's apparent dip in the northward direction . When measuring or describing the attitude of an inclined feature, two quantities are needed. The angle the slope descends, or dip, and the direction of descent, which can be represented by strike or dip direction. [4]

  4. Side looking airborne radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Side_looking_airborne_radar

    The radar "looks" with the looking angle θ (or so called off-nadir angle). The angle α between x-axis and the line of sight (LOS) is called cone angle, the angle φ between the x-axis and the projection of the line of sight to the (x; y)-plane is called azimuth angle. Cone- and azimuth angle are related by cosα = cosφ ∙ cosε.

  5. Inclinometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclinometer

    Determining the angle of the Earth's magnetic field with respect to the horizontal plane. Showing a deviation from the true vertical or horizontal. Surveying, to measure an angle of inclination or elevation. Alerting an equipment operator that it may tip over. Measuring angles of elevation, slope, or incline, e.g. of an embankment.

  6. Grade (slope) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(slope)

    α = angle of inclination. The grade (US) or gradient (UK) (also called stepth, slope, incline, mainfall, pitch or rise) of a physical feature, landform or constructed line refers to the tangent of the angle of that surface to the horizontal. It is a special case of the slope, where zero indicates horizontality. A larger number indicates higher ...
