Polynesian peoples skilfully navigation across thousands of kilometres of the ocean using sophisticated navigation techniques. navigation skills were highly valued and were passed down orally, often by song. important facts have memorised the motion of specific stars and where these stars would rise and set on the ocean, weather conditions, times of travel, wildlife species and could formations on a particular island, the direction of ocean swells, colours of sea and sky, angles for approaching harbours.
latitude and longitude are used to describe the position of any point on the surface of the Earth. Latitude and longitude are angles. In the surface of the planet, the distance between two points that are 1 degree of latitude apart is approximately 111 KM.
There is a slight variation because the Earth is not a perfect sphere.
