It discloses an atmospheric polarized light orientation method using a solar azimuth region, provides an angle of polarization (AOP) vision-modulated model in a pixel frame, and gives an orientation strategy utilizing the solar azimuth region; a horizontal attitude angle is introduced into the AOP in the pixel frame, and orientation is implemented by utilizing a separation point and a principal point of photograph; specifically, a seed line extraction algorithm is given to update the solar azimuth in real time, a morphological expression and an AOP expression of the solar azimuth are fused for an optimum estimation to the solar azimuth, and ultimately the orientation is achieved by using an external sensor such as an inertial navigation system to input the horizontal attitude angle.
