Frequently Asked Questions about azimuth()
Is the azimuth() function free to use in SimLab?
Yes. SimLab is 100% free — no signup, no license, and no usage limits. You can run azimuth() and 510+ other MATLAB®-compatible functions directly in your browser at simulations4all.com/simlab.
Do I need to install MATLAB to use azimuth()?
No. SimLab runs entirely in your web browser with zero installation. The azimuth() function works without any MATLAB® license or software download.
What does azimuth() do?
Initial great-circle bearing (azimuth) from the first point to the second, in degrees. It is a MATLAB®-compatible mapping function available in SimLab with the same calling syntax as MATLAB® — typically: az = azimuth(lat1, lon1, lat2, lon2).
Can I run azimuth() in my browser?
Yes. Open SimLab at simulations4all.com/simlab, write or paste code that calls azimuth(), and run it. Execution happens locally in your browser — no data leaves your machine.
