Pacing 1
Pacing 1 : A technique used by navigators to estimate distance travelled. Prior to embarking on a journey, a person wishing to use pacing needs to count the number of paces taken to travel a known distance. Paces can then be counted during a journey to estimate distance travelled. This is a particularly useful technique for navigating at times of limited visibility (i.e. at night) and when navigating over terrain with limited features and landmarks (such as mountainous areas and open moorland)
