Romer
$8.95
A romer is a navigational tool used for accurately determining grid references on a map. It's a transparent plastic card with markings that align with map scales and grid lines, allowing you to pinpoint precise locations on a map.
This official Geoscience Australia romer has scales in 1:25,000, 1:50,000, 1:100,000 and 1:250,000.
It also includes a protractor for measuring angles which is handy when double checking your compass bearing. My video below explains how.

One of those very useful ‘tools of trade’ for navigating that are always good to have on hand. And how great it is to be able to get it from the one who taught me how to use them. Thanks Caro!!!

I will need to be sure not to lose the thing

I keep mine in my map case for this exact reason. Another idea would be to add a small bit of flouro tape to one of the corners without text on it, so that it would show up if it’s on the ground.

There’s many ways to skin a cat AND use a romer. I am planning a how-to video for them.

Thinner than expected.

Interesting to hear you say that, David. This is the romer that I source from Geoscience Australia and I’m keen to know if anything in my product description led you to feel this way, as I want to make sure nothing is misleading or confusing. Let me know so I can address it. Thanks!
