distance arc

created by Yelskwah

(idea) by Yelskwah (6.6 y) (print)   ?   (I like it!) Sat Mar 11 2000 at 22:50:48

An aerial or ground navigational concept.

Distance arcs are drawn as circles (or parts thereof) having their centers at some known location. They represent a projected known range from the location.

To fix your location, you would additionaly require:
  • two position lines
  • two distance arcs
If you have only one, your location must be within the shape described by the intersection of the lines or arcs.
