    List of tz database time zones. The tz database partitions the world into regions where local clocks all show the same time. This map was made by combining version 2023d with OpenStreetMap data, using open source software. [1] This is a list of time zones from release 2024b of the tz database. [2]

  3. Coordinated Universal Time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinated_Universal_Time

    Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is the primary time standard globally used to regulate clocks and time. It establishes a reference for the current time, forming the basis for civil time and time zones. UTC facilitates international communication, navigation, scientific research, and commerce. UTC has been widely embraced by most countries and ...

  8. Universal Time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Time

    Universal Time. Universal Time (UT or UT1) is a time standard based on Earth's rotation. [1] While originally it was mean solar time at 0° longitude, precise measurements of the Sun are difficult. Therefore, UT1 is computed from a measure of the Earth's angle with respect to the International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF), called the Earth ...
