The chart compass, commonly known as "orientation compass", is a navigation tool used primarily in outdoor activities, such as hiking, trekking, orienteering and nature adventure so it could be very useful along the paths and was specifically designed to help people identify the correct direction and maintain a correct orientation with respect to magnetic north.
This small magnetic instrument consists of a box or case containing a compass rose, a circular dial with the letters of the cardinal points (north, south, east, west) and the intermediate angles (northeast, south-west, etc. .), and a floating magnetic needle.
The operation is based on the principle that the magnetic needle will align itself with the Earth's magnetic field, always pointing towards the magnetic north pole. Therefore, once the compass needle is established, we can accurately determine the direction of magnetic north. By knowing the direction of magnetic north and using the compass rose, it is possible to easily identify the other cardinal points and establish a correct route or direction to follow during an excursion or outdoor navigation.
The chart compass is an essential tool for outdoor and adventure enthusiasts, allowing them to orient themselves, avoid getting lost and navigate safely in natural environments, even when there are no visible landmarks. It is a trusted tool for explorers, hikers, campers, hunters and anyone who wants to have a better understanding of their surroundings during their outdoor adventures.
