GEELMUYDEN. ASTRONOMICAL OBSERVATIONS. [NORW. POL. EXP. NO. 6.] 



F. Direct Determination of Deviation. 



Observer: Lieutenant Scott-Hansen. 



The following observations, though not strictly astronomical, are inserted here as a supple- 

 ment to the preceding. They give the mutual bearings between the compass on the ice, and the 

 azimuth dial on the bridge (or in some few cases the steering compass) on board. The abbre- 

 viations are the same as in List E. The resulting deviation of the steering compass is added, 

 together with the latitude and longitude. 



In a journal kept by Lieut. Scott-Hansen, the following remark is made under October 5 

 1893: Deviation for compass course SWW was changed point more westerly.
