determines where 0° is when you measure an angle
with your protractor or compass.

What is the difference here?
• Fruitvale Ave. is aligned with True North. • So are the edges of parking lots 4 & 5. • Let’s go take a bearing along the edge of lot 4
and see what we get…

Declination changes over time
• Here in Northern California it changes by about 1° every 20 years.
• The declination shown on your topo map may be out of date.
• What about declination displayed by my GPS? –It probably correct as of the date of manufacture.

Local Anomalies
• May be as much as 90 degrees –3-4 degrees is common
• North of Kingston, Ontario; 90° of anomalous declination. • Kingston Harbor, Ontario; 16.3° W to 15.5° E of anomalous declination
over two kilometers (1.2 miles); magnetite and ilmenite deposits. • Savoff, Ontario (50.0 N, 85.0 W). Over 60° of anomalous declination. • Ramapo Mountains, northeastern New Jersey; iron ore; compass rendered
useless in some areas. • Near Grants, New Mexico north of the Gila Wilderness area; Malpais lava
flows; compass rendered useless.

Check you compass & sighting technique using these methods and the declination for the area
• Find some place near your home to establish your personal compass testing location.
• Identify several features, at least 1km away, that you can sight on.
• Use a map to determine True bearings to these features. Convert these bearings to Magnetic using the calculated declination for the area.
• Check your compass and technique. Experiment with the your gear to see if it influences your compass.
• Keep notes, so you can repeat this in the future.
