The present invention relates generally to detection of a slope of an apparatus in a three-dimensional space and, more particularly, to a detection device for using an azimuth and an altitude of the sun and a method of detecting a three-dimensional slope of an installed antenna, or the like. There are provided a slope detection device and a detection method using the same, the slope detection device including: a structure provided with a spherical surface; multiple optical sensors provided on a spherical surface of the structure in a manner that face different directions, the optical sensors measuring a quantity of sunlight; an optical sensor receiving unit receiving output information of each of the optical sensors; a time providing unit providing calendar information on a date and a time when the output information is received; and an operation unit configured to analysis an incidence angle of the sunlight from the collected pieces of the output information, calculate a horizontal coordinate system from the analyzed incidence angle of the sunlight, the calendar information, and a sun path equation, and calculate a three-dimensional slope information for a current location in comparison with the horizontal coordinate system.
