7 cze 2014 · The document provides instruction on intermediate land navigation skills, including how to make sense of direction by setting a course with a compass, tracking your present location on a map, and determining travel distance by calculating it.
1. Identify the scale of the map. The map scale is the ratio (1:50,000) of the distance on map (1 inch) relative to the distance on the ground (usually 50,000 inches). 2. Convert a straight-line map distance to miles, meters, or yards using the map's bar scale (Figure 071-329-1008-1). Figure 1. Bar scales.
The distance between two points is determinate by measuring between points on the map and multiplying the map measurement by the denominator of the RF. 34 DIRECTIONS Direction- is defined as an imaginary straight line on map or ground and expressed as unit of angular measure.
Find the two points/ places on the map that you are going to measure the distance. Use any of the item stated above (preferably a strip of paper for straight line distances) to measure the distance between the two places. Ensure that you have made markings on the items used for the places/ points.
