System that uses coordinates to uniquely determine the position of points. The most common coordinate system is the Cartesian system, where points are given by distance along a horizontal x-axis and vertical y-axis from the origin. A polar coordinate system locates a point by its direction relative to a reference direction and its distance from a given point. In three dimensions, it leads to cylindrical and spherical coordinates.

Topic: Celestial Navigation, Compass - Magnetic and Gyro
Activ Determine compass error (magnetic and gyro) using azimuth choosing a suitable
celestial body (Sun/ Stars/ Planets/ Moon). Apply variation to find the deviation of the magnetic
compass.
Minimum number of times that activity should be recorded: 6 (2 each phase)
Sample calculation (Azimuth- Planets):
On 06th May 2006 at 22h20m 10s UTC, a vessel in position 48°00'N 050°00'E observed Mars bearing
327° by compass. Find the compass error. If variation was 4.0° East, calculate the deviation.
