The points of the compass are a set of horizontal, radially arrayed compass directions (or azimuths) used in navigation and cartography. A compass rose is primarily composed of four cardinal directions — north, east, south, and west —each separated by 90 degrees, and secondarily divided by four ordinal (intercardinal) directions—northeast
The four cardinal directions, or cardinal points, are the four main compass directions: north, south, east, and west, commonly denoted by their initials N, S, E, and W respectively. Relative to north, the directions east, south, and west are at 90 degree intervals in the clockwise direction.
It used to be beautifully drawn on early compasses and maps. If the compass rose is large enough, it is still possible to divide all divisions again by two so that the precision is a 1/64th part of the circle.
A compass divided into 360 degrees is the most common unit of measurement. Each degree is divided into 60 minutes, each minute into 60 seconds. A handheld compass is not able to measure down to a minute, let alone a second, but those units are used for precise locations using latitude and longitude.
A 16-point compass provides more precise directional indications compared to a basic 4-point compass. It allows you to navigate using cardinal points (N, S, E, W) as well as intermediate points (NE, SE, SW, NW) for greater accuracy.
