Which azimuth value represents true North on a map?

Azimuth is the clockwise angle measured from geographic north. Because North is the reference direction, the angle that points directly toward the North Pole is 0 degrees. Since angles wrap around, 360 degrees represents the same direction as 0 degrees. The other major directions correspond to 90 degrees (east), 180 degrees (south), and 270 degrees (west). So the azimuth value for true North is 0 degrees (or 360 degrees, since they’re equivalent).
