# Island Navigation

What we have learned so far:

- locate yourself on a map using peaks and triangulation with a magnetic compass: [https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/U7x9h9U4B6/Lab\_01\_navigation\_compass\_challenge.html](https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/U7x9h9U4B6/Lab_01_navigation_compass_challenge.html)
- create an astrolabe to measure the height of objects in the elab: [https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/F6J5D8e4/Lab\_03\_navigation\_astrolabe.html](https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/F6J5D8e4/Lab_03_navigation_astrolabe.html)
- determine the altitude of peaks, also part of navigation, using an astrolabe that you create: [https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/U7x9h9U4B6/Lab\_01\_navigation\_compass\_challenge.html](https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/m0m6o3/Lab_05_navigation_tangents_and_mount_Everest.html)
- Polynesian sailing compass, using the stars to navigate at night
- learn how to read maps of the island: [https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/x5e2H8S/Lab\_02\_navigation\_reading\_maps.html](https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/x5e2H8S/Lab_02_navigation_reading_maps.html)
- use a globe and our noon shadow to determine latitude: [https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/C6S3f6/Lab\_06\_navigation\_globes\_and\_calculating\_latitude.html](https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/C6S3f6/Lab_06_navigation_globes_and_calculating_latitude.html)
- locate evil villains using clues: [https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/d429D3L/Lab\_06c\_navigation\_find\_the\_evil\_villains.html](https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/d429D3L/Lab_06c_navigation_find_the_evil_villains.html)
- learn about the moon phases, and create a diagram: [https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/v155S7g/Lab\_07a\_moon\_seasons\_latitude\_longitude\_challenge.html](https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/v155S7g/Lab_07a_moon_seasons_latitude_longitude_challenge.html)
- [map out the solar system to see the seasons and how our shadow changes with latitude](https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/v155S7g/Lab_07a_moon_seasons_latitude_longitude_challenge.html)
- create a sundial to measure time: [https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/b9Y4u6U4H/Lab\_06a\_making\_a\_sundial.html](https://elab.hpa.edu/wiki/pages/b9Y4u6U4H/Lab_06a_making_a_sundial.html)
