Abstract
An azimuth determinating apparatus wherein the azimuth sensor is oriented to a specified direction, and the deviation of the two-component detection signals of the azimuth sensor from the pointing direction of the azimuth sensor are corrected by the adjustment of the two-component detection signals with the adjusting circuit in accordance with the indication on the amount of deviation indicated by the indicating circuit, whereby distortion of the output signals due to the residual magnetism of the azimuth sensor is corrected and the true azimuth can be determined.
