Naming convention: What are these ways of defining direction called?

The following two conventions for defining direction are very common, but what are they called?

  • 0 at north, clockwise
  • 0 at positive x-axis, counterclockwise

Background: I'm writing a function that converts direction from one convention to the other, and struggle to come up with a good and clear name for it.
