Cardinal and Intermediate Directions and Direction Angles

The cardinal directions north, east, south and west describe the four main directions on Earth. Between are the intermediate directions. Those are familiar to most people. To make more exact specifications, degrees are used, with 0 degrees pointing north and then going around clockwise. Here the direction names and angles can be compared to each other.

North	N	0°
North-northeast	NNE	22.5°
Northeast	NE	45°
East-northeast	ENE	67.5°
East	E	90°
East-southeast	ESE	112.5°
Southeast	SE	135°
South-southeast	SSE	157.5°
South	S	180°
South-southwest	SSW	202.5°
Southwest	SW	225°
West-southwest	WSW	247.5°
West	W	270°
West-northwest	WNW	292.5°
Northwest	NW	315°
North-northwest	NNW	337.5°
