the complexities of individual’s navigation in our modern and increasingly globalised society. Proulx would agree with the statement ‘The global cannot be all bad nor the local all good. In our lives today‚ the two must coexist and we must learn to navigate both’‚ and her text provides evidence to this effect. The novel does not present the simplistic dichotomies of the global being negative and the local being positive‚ but instead focuses on characters navigation through both. Proulx demonstrates

The compass has served as a navigational aid to many tourists‚ travelers‚ and numerous explorers. Though the compass has served well in navigation‚ it has affected and improved mankind greatly. In China‚ building was refined in many ways by the compass. It has enabled many to find positions‚ direction or route. No one knows when‚ where‚ or by whom the compass was invented (dEstaing and Young 153). We do know though‚ that there were numerous inventors of the compass. The first compass was invented

in the modern age or whether it still has a use in modern navigation. To decide this I explored modern navigation techniques‚ which is mostly done by global positioning systems‚ I researched the way that these work and the methodology behind the use of a sextant. The conclusion that I came to was that modern day sextant use is rare unless practicing for an emergency. Since its release GPS has dominated and is now the main source of navigation on most vessels (big or small). The reason for this dominance

How would pilots ever get around so easily without the help of navigation aides? Navigational aides have been around for almost as long as aircraft have been flying in the skies above us. The first navigation system was composted of just a high intensity-flashing beacon. These beacons were placed on the flight routes that were popularly flown in the mid 1920’s. With more time more of these technologies that help us navigate the world will be even simpler than today. This paper will explain how some

GPS Certification Program Part A: 1. UTM stands for universal transverse mercator geographic coordinate system.What you often see on poster-size maps of the world is an equatorial mercator projection that has relatively little distortion along the equator‚ but quite a bit of distortion toward the poles. By slightly changing the orientation of the cylinder onto which the map is projected‚ successive swaths of relatively undistored regions can be created. This is exactly what the UTM system
