close to the magnetic bearing. The difference between a magnetic bearing and a compass bearing is the deviation caused to the compass by ferrous metals and...

read the bearing or azimuth off the compass card while simultaneously aligning the compass with the objective (see photo). Magnetic card compass designs...

calculate true bearing from compass bearing (and known deviation and variation): Compass bearing + deviation = magnetic bearing Magnetic bearing + variation...

points of the compass are a set of horizontal, radially arrayed compass directions (or azimuths) used in navigation and cartography. A compass rose is primarily...

A prismatic compass is a navigation and surveying instrument which is extensively used to find out the bearing of the traversing and included angles between...

A bearing compass, is a nautical instrument used to determine the bearing of observed objects. (Bearing: angle formed by the north and the visual to a...

portable compass in a box (1318), supporting the notion that the dry compass was known in Europe by then. A bearing compass is a magnetic compass mounted...

A hand compass (also hand bearing compass or sighting compass) is a compact magnetic compass capable of one-hand use and fitted with a sighting device...

are several types of position line: Compass bearing – the angle between north and the line passing through the compass and the point of interest Transit...

least a latitude and longitude to the image, and optionally elevation, compass bearing and other fields may also be included. In theory, every part of a picture...

points, and an orientation or direction. A direction may be a simple compass bearing or a precise orientation determined by accurate survey methods. Bounds...

displays the aircraft's heading in compass points, and with respect to magnetic north when set with a compass. Bearing friction causes drift errors from...

feature is the azimuth (compass direction) of the strike line. This can be represented by either a quadrant compass bearing (such as N25°E), or as a...

other horizontal. Rotation about the vertical axis varies the azimuth (compass bearing) of the pointing direction of the instrument. Rotation about the horizontal...

path with constant bearing as measured relative to true north, which can be used in marine navigation to pick which compass bearing to follow. In 1537...

calculates the direction of the Sun as seen from the mirror, e.g. its compass bearing and angle of elevation. Then, given the direction of the target, the...

chosen. In what was later known as Mound 2, Brown used the east – west compass-bearing of the excavated board found in Mound 3 to align a 6-foot wide trench...

A Brunton compass, properly known as the Brunton Pocket Transit, is a precision compass made by Brunton, Inc. of Riverton, Wyoming. The instrument was...

for navigating with a compass. Navigators were able to use the azimuth (the horizontal angle or direction of a compass bearing) of the rising and setting...
