navigational
Guiding your course
Navigational relates to navigation—the process of determining position and plotting a course.
Navigational charts help sailors find their way.
Navigational equipment includes compasses, GPS devices, and radar.
The term applies to any system or tool used for finding direction: The app provides navigational assistance for hikers.
