This involves determining the position of a vessel by calculating its observation in relation to known landmarks. The observation is typically based on the bearing (direction) and/or distance from these identifiable points. This fundamental skill is crucial for effective navigation, aiding mariners in establishing and maintaining their vessel's location.
