bearing
Explanation:
In navigation, bearing is the horizontal angle between the direction of an object and another object, or between it and that of true north. ... Relative bearing refers to the angle between the craft's forward direction and the location of another object.

En peiling er, i navigasjonssammenheng, «det å ta sikte på noe» – eller med andre ord det å finne retningen til noe ved hjelp av et kompass eller annet dertil egnet peileinstrument.
