Angle_{(Milli-radians)} = Angle_{(Compass Points)} × 11.25 × 2000 × π / 360

Compass Points unit in Angle

Compass points are a unit of angular measurement based on the traditional 32-point compass rose, where the full circle is divided into 32 equal parts. Each compass point represents 11.25 degrees. Compass points are primarily used in navigation and meteorology to describe directions and wind headings with precision.

Milli-radians unit in Angle

Milliradians (mrad) are a unit of angular measurement equal to one-thousandth of a radian. Milliradians are commonly used in military applications, optics, and ballistics, where precise angular measurements are needed over long distances. This unit is particularly useful in targeting systems and rangefinding.
