A compass rosesometimes called a windrose, is a figure on a map or nautical chart usedto display the orientation of the cardinal directions, - north, southeast, and west. It is also the term for the graduated markings found onthe traditional magnetic compass. Today, the idea of a compass rose isfound on, or featured in, almost all navigation systems, includingnautical charts, non-directional beacons (NDB), VHF omnidirectionalrange (VOR) systems, global-positioning systems (GPS), and similarequipment and devices. Early forms of the compass rose were known aswind roses, since no differentiation was made between a cardinaldirection and the wind which emanated from that direction. Today, windroses are used by meteorologists to depict wind frequencies fromdifferent directions at a location.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 104 pp. Englisch.
