Navigation Master — World Direction & Distance

Straight path
New Challenge

We’ll pick two cities on different continents. Determine direction & distance.

1) Direction

Choose the 8-point compass direction from the first city to the second.

2) Estimate Distance

Use the scale tool (drag bar/left knob to move, right knob to rotate). Label shows mi / km / nm.

Align the scale along the line and "tile" it.
3) Submit

Grades are per submission: direction (A/B/F) and distance (A+ … F).

Rules & Grading
  • Distance grade: A+ ≤100 mi error; A ≤250; B ≤500; C ≤1000; D ≤2000; F >2000.
  • Direction grade: A if perfect sector; B if adjacent sector (e.g., actual SW but you chose S or W); otherwise F.
