9.5.6 Cardinal
The cardinal component shows the value of a bearing in a textual format. The
value (wind direction) is indicated by the abbreviation of the corresponding
cardinal compass point (“E”, “NE”, “ENE”, for example). The value of the
parameter is in the center of the component, the user-defined title appears at the
top of the component, and the Units field in the lower right of the component
show whether the angle is Magnetic or True.
The cardinal component is square in aspect ratio; for example, a cardinal
component that is four grids wide will be four grids high. An example of a cardinal
component is shown below.
