How to distinguish the southeast, northwest, and northwest, and how to distinguish the direction of

Navigation is a way to distinguish between southeast and northwest.

The method of identifying directions is to use a compass to determine the direction, a map to determine the direction, the direction to the sun, a tree to determine the direction, and the North Star.

1. Use the compass to identify the direction. The mobile map itself sets the direction, you can see the direction of your anchor point on your map, and the direction it points to is the direction you are facing. The compass on the mobile map is initially set to point north, and the compass will not appear when pointing north, but once you move the map and change the direction, the compass will appear.

2. Use the map to identify directions. On weekdays, I don't have to look at the map to get a general idea of the subway. For example, my previous company was in the southeast direction of a certain subway station, and the north direction of a certain subway station.

3. Use the direction of the sun to identify the direction. China is located in the northern hemisphere, north of the Tropic of Capricorn, where the sun rises in the southeast in the morning and sets in the southwest at dusk, and due south at noon. We only have to look at the sun to know that the direction of the sun is south.

Of course, this is for cities north of the Tropic of Cancer, but South China is a different story.

4. Use trees to identify directions. If you get lost in the wilderness and your phone is out of battery, don't panic, you take a good look at the trees and they will show you the direction. If you look at the rings of the trees, the sparse arrangement of the rings is to the south, and vice versa, to the north.

If you look at the bottom of the tree, the shady side of the tree is easy to grow moss, and that side is the north side.

5. Using the North Star, you can also judge the direction. Polaris is located in the sky due north and is about the same altitude as the local latitude when viewed at the level of the earth. When looking for it, it is usually determined based on the Big Dipper or the star W.

How can people be divided into north, south, and west when they are standing?

If it's morning, you can face the sun. The sun rises in the east, with the west behind it, north on the left hand side and south on the right hand side. If you have a tree stump nearby, you can know the direction by looking at the growth rings.

The width of the growth rings is south, and the opposite is north. Facing north, left is west and right is east.

Southeast, northwest, and northwest belong to the spatial order, such as from top to bottom or from left to right, from far to near or from the surrounding to the middle, etc., which are the four directions in geography.

East is the direction of the Earth's rotation, West is the opposite direction of the Earth's rotation, and East-West is the direction of the latitude circle. There is no end to the east-west direction on Earth. There are poles in the north and south directions of the earth, and when you start from the equator, go due north or due south, and finally go to the north and south poles, and cross the north or south poles, the direction will change.

Look at the sun during the day and on a sunny day: the sunrise is east, and the sunset is west. Look at the trees at night and on cloudy days:

In the direction of dense foliage, the side of the stump rings is wide in the south, and in the direction of sparse foliage, the side of the stump with dense rings is in the north. If you get lost at night in the forest, you can touch the moss: the mossy side of the tree is the north, and the back is the south.

Methods for distinguishing directions from southeast, northwest:

1. Polaris. The North Star is the best compass, and it's located in the direction of true north.

2. Make use of the watch. For example, 4 o'clock in the afternoon is 16 o'clock, 16 divided by 2 equals 8, the 8 o'clock position is aligned with the sun, and the direction of the 12 o'clock position is the north.

3. Immediate results. In a clear day, put a straight skewer vertically into the ground, the straight skewer forms a shadow under the sun's illumination, place the stone at the apex of the shadow, about 15 minutes later, when the straight skewer shadow moves to another place, put another one to the shadow point, connect the two stones into a straight line, the side facing the sun is south, and the opposite direction is north.

4. Use tree rings. The rings on the south-facing side of the tree-ring are sparse, and the rings on the north-facing side of the tree-ring are tighter.

5. Make use of ant holes. The ant burrows are mostly located south of the big trees, and the entrance of the cave faces south.

Southeast, Northwest and Northeast refer to the four basic directions of the earth, and the distinction between South, East and Northwest is often judged based on the experience of daily life, but the specific method may vary depending on the geographical location. Some methods for determining the direction based on geographical location and environmental characteristics are described below.

First of all, in most cases we can distinguish between the southeast and the northwest by our daily experience. For example, North generally refers to the direction pointing to the geographic North Pole, while South means the opposite direction. In the same way, a place located in the east points in the direction of the rising sun, while a place in the west indicates the opposite direction.

This method is the most commonly used and simplest in everyday life, but it can be misleading in some specific circumstances.

Second, some places use physical geographic features to determine directions. For example, in coastal areas, one can use the direction of the waves to determine the bearing. When a wave comes from the direction of the ocean, this direction is east, and if the wave is coming from the direction of the coast, it marks the direction of the west.

Similarly, if you walk along a river, you can judge the direction by the ripples of the water flow, and if you walk along the mountains, you can judge the direction by the slope.

In addition, one can also judge the direction through astronomical phenomena. For example, the North Star can be seen at night in the Northern Hemisphere, and the direction near the North Star is the north. Similarly, people in the Southern Hemisphere can tell their bearings by looking at the direction of the Southern Cross.

In short, southeast, northwest, and northwest are very basic geographical orientations, but in fact, there are many ways to determine the direction. Whether it's geography or environment, there are different ways to orient yourself. Therefore, when we need to clarify the north, south, east, and west, we need to choose the most appropriate method from all possible methods to make a judgment.

According to the "Shang Cup Southwest, Left West, Right East" to distinguish directions, you need to use the map to find one of the directions first, and then use this formula to find the other three directions.

With the direction, move the direction marker to the corresponding position to know that one point is in a certain direction of another point.

"Up, North, South, Left, West, Right, East" is only applicable to maps that do not have pointers, graticules. This is called general discernment.

For example, Heilongjiang is located in the north of China, Beijing is located in the north of Henan, and Tianjin is located in the east of Beijing.
