Understanding Timezones
Timezones are regions of the Earth that have the same standard time. The world is divided into 24 primary timezones, each roughly 15 degrees of longitude apart, corresponding to one hour of time difference.
Key Concepts:
- UTC (Coordinated Universal Time): The primary time standard by which the world regulates clocks and time
- GMT (Greenwich Mean Time): Time zone at 0° longitude, essentially the same as UTC
- DST (Daylight Saving Time): Practice of advancing clocks during summer months
- Offset: Time difference from UTC (e.g., UTC+5:30, UTC-8)
Common Use Cases:
- Scheduling international business meetings and conference calls
- Coordinating with remote teams across different countries
- Planning travel and managing jet lag
- Broadcasting live events to global audiences
- Managing deadlines across multiple regions
