Navigation techniques are methods used to determine one's position and plan a route to a destination. Common techniques include using a compass to find direction, maps for visual guidance, and GPS technology for precise location tracking. These tools help travelers, sailors, and pilots navigate effectively. In addition to these tools, natural navigation techniques involve observing the environment. For example, the position of the sun can indicate cardinal directions, while the North Star helps in finding true north at night. Understanding these techniques enhances one's ability to navigate in various settings.
