Bearing compass A bearing compass is a magnetic compass mounted in such a way that it allows the taking of bearings of objects by aligning them with the lubber line of the bearing compass.

The typical Chinese navigational compass was in the form of a magnetic needle floating in a bowl of water.

A compass deviation card is prepared so that the navigator can convert between compass and magnetic headings.

The compass must be twisted so that the base of the compass becomes horizontal, as accomplished using the spirit level incorporated in it.

Despite these advances, the liquid compass was not introduced generally into the Royal Navy until 1908.

Fluxgate electronic compasses can be calibrated automatically, and can also be programmed with the correct local compass variation so as to indicate the true heading.
