Bowditch Glossary refers to North as 000 (under course). -----Original Message----- From: Michael Wescott [mailto:wescott_mike@EMC.COM] Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 1:19 PM To: NAVIGATION-L@LISTSERV.WEBKAHUNA.COM Subject: Due north Is there a standard or preferred way to indicate due north numerically: 000 or 360? I'm not talking about mathematical convenience, but say for entries in a log or on a plotting sheet. Anybody got a reference for such a standard? -- Mike Wescott Wescott_Mike@EMC.COM
