Product Description

Geographical North and Magnetic North: Generally represents the direction of north and south, but there are two meanings of north (geographical north and magnetic north). The geographical north is universal and the north of all maps represents the geographical north.
However, it is a little different from the north direction that points to the compass hand. The magnetic north is almost the same as the geographical north, but not perfectly match. The angle of the error is called "magnetic deflection".
This magnetic deflection will vary depending on what position you are on the planet. The map has the difference that you will need to calculate the direction according to the difference in the map.
How to calculate the direction of a certain location: For example, if you want to go to a lake, you can see the position forever, but if you go through the forest and the lake is not visible, this is a great compass magnet for you. First, hold the compass magnet horizontally and point the arrow at the top of the body towards the lake.
Rotate the ring and place the arrow inside the ring on the north side of the magnetic needle (red hand). Read directions with "prescription line" By walking along the direction, you can reach places where the lake is not visible. HOW TO GO TO THE PLACE ON THE MAP: Find your current location, location direction, north to reach the location shown on the map.
Connect your current location and destination on the map at one end of the main plate Rotate the ring and the arrow in the ring will spin toward the north of the map. Hold the compass needle horizontally and rotate the body until the magnetic needle matches the arrow of the ring. Moving forward to the matching direction will lead you to the destination. You can reach your destination by moving as straight as possible.
How to find where you are in the map: We recommend checking out the location where you see the mountains and lakes in sight. Example: Assuming that you can see a mountain on the left and a lake from your current location. Hold the compass horizontally and point the arrow at the top of the body to the mountain. Rotate the ring until the arrow and magnetic needle in the ring match. Compass magnet on map Rotate the map until the north of the map matches the arrow of the ring. Keep it in place, place one end of the main plate towards the mountain of the map. Your place is somewhere on the line. Then repeat the same time in the lake, where the two lines at one end of the main plate crosses at the current location.
