I. calculation of compass deviation by observing celestial bodies (1) observing the azimuth of the sun at low altitude and calculating the compass error; 1. points for attention of observing low altitude solar azimuth for compass error (1) the sun should be below 30 degrees, preferably below 15 degrees. (2) keep compass level as far as possible. (3) continuous observation three times, taking the average. (4) the compass azimuth readings are accurate to 0.5 degrees. (5) the observation time is accurate to 0.1 minutes. 2. common methods of calculating the true orientation of the sun (1) the sun azimuth table 1) the structure of the solar azimuth table The A. table is divided into two volumes: the first volume consists of 0 to 30 degrees latitude (DAVIS S TABLES Davis table ); second volumes including 30 ~ 64 degrees latitude (PATS BURDWOOD S TABLES). B. each volume is divided into the main table and the schedule. The main table before and after the two volumes, before the volume of declination and latitude of the same name, the second book of declination and latitude. Argument: table look-up table latitude, the spacing is 1 degrees, listed on a page in a corner; table declination, the distance is 1 degrees, a total of 0 to 24 degrees, each column in the first line of table; as shown, the spacing for 4 minutes (2 minutes before and after the transit distance), the following page for the morning as argument, right column argument for the afternoon when viewed (UK version represented by Rome letter). From the table you can find; the semicircle of the sun, the first name is the same latitude as the second name in the morning is E, and the afternoon is W. Schedule: Sun declination table and time difference table, they are arranged in acc
