Map Reading III North (x3 types) True North- line through North Pole.
Magnetic North- direction to northern magnetic pole (compass).
Grid North-North as established by map maker. True North Magnetic North Grid North Map Reading III Types of Azimuth An azimuth is an angle measured clockwise from a base line direction (north). Grid- angle between grid north and a straight line plotted between two points on a map. Magnetic- angle determined by using a compass. Back- opposite direction of an azimuth.

EXAMPLE: AZIMUTH 215 DEGREES -180 DEGREES BACK AZIMUTH 35 DEGREES RULE #2: IF THE AZIMUTH IS 180 DEGREES OR LESS, THEN ADD 180 DEGREES. EXAMPLE: AZIMUTH 180 DEGREES +180 DEGREES BACK AZIMUTH 360 DEGREES BACK AZIMUTH Map Reading III 3 Ways to Plot Azimuths 1. Plotting Azimuths between 2 points on a map. 2. Converting Magnetic Azimuths to Grid Azimuths. 3. Converting Grid Azimuths to Magnetic Azimuths. Map Reading III Plotting Azimuths Azimuths must be converted to the environment they will be used in. Grid to Magnetic (map-to-compass) Magnetic to Grid (compass-to-map). Use the Declination Diagram to find the conversion angle (GM Angle).
For Grid to Magnetic Conversion Remember: Right-Add-Left-Subtract (RALS): GM to the Right Add GM. GM to the Left Subtract the GM. Map Reading III Plotting Azimuths; Declination Diagrams What is the GM Angle for Tenino? What is the GM Angle for Columbus? Map Reading III Practical Exercise Question #1: Given a Tenino Map (hint: find Declination Diagram).
From your location you see a radio tower on magnetic azimuth of 275 degrees.
What azimuth will you use to locate the radio tower on your map?
Bonus: What would be the GRID azimuth from the tower to your position?

After determining the map location for your rendezvous with the B Company platoon leader, you plotted the grid azimuth at 179 degrees. There are mine fields on both sides of your route so you want to make sure you travel in the right direction.
What azimuth will you tell your compass man to follow?
Bonus: You got half way to the rendezvous and were directed to dispatch a squad back to your original location.
What azimuth should your squad leader follow?
