Navigation techniques are methods used to determine one's position and plan a route to a destination. Traditional techniques include using a compass to find directions based on the Earth's magnetic field and maps to visualize the terrain. These tools help travelers understand where they are and how to reach their goals, whether on land, sea, or in the air. In modern times, technology has transformed navigation with the advent of GPS (Global Positioning System). This system uses satellites to provide real-time location data, making it easier for people to navigate unfamiliar areas. Additionally, smartphone apps have made navigation more accessible, allowing users to find directions with just a few taps.
