Calculate the azimuth from point1 to point2.

The azimuth is the angle measured clockwise from north to the direction from point1 to point2.

Parameters:

  • point1 – First point.

  • point2 – Second point.

  • spheroid – Optional spheroid for geodetic calculations. If not provided, uses WGS84 ellipsoid.

  • strategy – Calculation strategy.

Returns:

Azimuth in radians (0 to 2π).
