def cart2sph_deg(x: float, y: float, z: float) -> float:
    """
    Convert Cartesian coordinates (x, y, z) to spherical coordinates (azimuth, elevation, radius) in degrees.

    Parameters:
    - x (float): The x-coordinate in Cartesian space.
    - y (float): The y-coordinate in Cartesian space.
    - z (float): The z-coordinate in Cartesian space.

    Returns:
    - float: Azimuth, elevation, and radius in degrees.
