Map Fix 

Map Fix is used with charts or maps. This system asks for a reference 
position in latitude/longitude, which you take from a marked location 
on the map. It then shows the present position as distance on the map 
from that reference point. 

For example, if it shows a distance of UP 4.00" and LEFT 0.50", you 
then measure up four inches and to the left a half-inch from the refer-
ence point on the map to find your location.
