Board position for North bearing

For the ‘bearing’ data to be correct, what is the proper orientation of the Nodecard? Which edge goes north?

Hi @ScottBot and welcome to the Blues community!

Great question - bearing is calculated relative to the two most recently acquired GPS location coordinates (it’s not relative to the position of the Notecard). Rather, imagine two sets of GPS coordinates drawing a line. As documented here, bearing is then “The compass bearing from absolute north, in degrees, relative to the previous tracking event’s coordinates”.

Thanks,
Rob
