    This Venn diagram compares GPS and magnetic compasses as navigational devices. GPS provides precise location tracking but requires a strong signal and power, while compasses are low-cost, robust, and function without external inputs but provide less accurate readings and require maps and navigation skills. Both help identify one's location but GPS offers digital maps and pinpoint accuracy while compasses are simpler to use with care.
