In 2004, Keith Pickering applied magnetic declinations from a more modern source and found a track that ended in the vicinity of the Plana Cays.
22.
Sir Edmund Halley surveyed the vicinity of South Georgia in January 1700 in the course of his work of charting magnetic declinations in the South Atlantic.
23.
Its compass function takes into consideration the magnetic declination of a city so that the compass can point to the true North while geolocated in that city.
24.
A compass is easier to use, though the deviation of the Earth's magnetic field from true north, known as its magnetic declination must be taken into account.
25.
The original building was constructed in 1840 as part of a worldwide research project run by Edward Sabine to determine the cause of fluctuations in magnetic declination.
26.
The exact value of the magnetic declination is place-dependent and varies over time, though declination is frequently given on the map itself or obtainable on-line from various sites.
27.
Some compasses allow the scale to be adjusted to compensate for the local magnetic declination; if adjusted correctly, the compass will give the true bearing instead of the magnetic bearing.
28.
Depending on where the compass is located on the surface of the Earth the angle between true north and magnetic north, called magnetic declination can vary widely with geographic location.
29.
This might imply an awareness of magnetic declination, the difference between the magnetic north ( compass north, in this case Aquilo ) and the true north ( Pole Star, Septentrio ).
30.
Only in the middle of the 18th century, after the marine chronometer was invented and the spatial distribution of magnetic declination was known, could the Mercator projection be fully adopted by navigators.
