Azimuth Island
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Azimuth Island () is the largest of the Azimuth Islands lying in Holme Bay, Mac Robertson Land. Mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936-37. So named by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) because the island was included in a triangulation survey by ANARE (Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions) in 1959.
