== Tool &amp;quot;Compass rose&amp;quot; ==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Modern nautical compass rose.svg|miniatur|]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The tool &amp;quot;Compass rose&amp;quot; can be switched on and off via the menu &amp;quot;Ansicht&amp;quot; &amp;gt; &amp;quot;Kompassrose&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; The compass rose appears in the lower right corner of the map.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Geodetic/true north ===&lt;br /&gt;
The '''outer''' ring of the compass rose shows the '''geodetic direction''' on a true 360° scale. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; The north marking agrees with the direction towards geodetic north on the map.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Magnetic north ===&lt;br /&gt;
The '''inner''' ring of the compass rose shows the '''magnetic direction''' at the center point of the map; it has a 360° scale as well as a subdivition of the cardinal direction into 32 compass points. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; The north marking agrees with the direction towards the arctic magnetic pole (the magnetic south pole which is located close to the geodetic north pole) on the map.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; The inner ring therefore shows the image of a compass in the hand of a user located at the center point of the map facing geodetic north.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Magnetic declination ===&lt;br /&gt;
The magnetic declination (also called magnetic variation) is the angle between geodetic north and magnetic north with reference to location and time. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; It is shown inside the compass rose in unit degree.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Application ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Navigation ===&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
see: [[wikipedia:en:Magnetic_declination#Navigation|Navigation]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Bearing ===&lt;br /&gt;
...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Basics ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Earth%27s magnetic field ===&lt;br /&gt;
[[wikipedia:en:Earth%27s_magnetic_field|Earth%27s magnetic field]]...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Magnetic declination ===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:D map mf 2005 large.jpeg|miniatur|isogone map]] &amp;lt;!-- lesbare Gradzahlen wären besser --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The magnetic declination varies at different locations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The main reason for the local variations in the declination angle are irregularities in the earth%27s magnetic field.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; Only close to the pole the declination angle aso varies due to the location of the geodetic and magnetic pole.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Locatons of the same magnetic declination can be connected by a line called isogone and be visualized in a isogonemap.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;clear:both&amp;gt; &amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Earth Magnetic Field Declination from 1590 to 1990.gif|miniatur|variations between 1590 and 1990]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The magnetic declination varies in time at all locations.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; The variation rate is given in degrees per year.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt; The animated isogone map shows the variations within the last 400 years.&lt;br /&gt;
