What does Monte Carlo simulation help us estimate in orienteering?
Think about how simulations can show different results.
Name one error type that can occur during navigation.
Consider how compasses work.
What is the main advantage of using the A* algorithm over Dijkstra’s algorithm?
Think about what factors A* includes that Dijkstra's does not.
True or False: The Monte Carlo method can only be used for calculating probabilities in games.
Consider other applications for simulations.
Using a Monte Carlo method, describe how you would analyze the effect of changing terrain on your expected travel time for a given route.
Consider how each terrain influences your speed and energy consumption.
Calculate how a ±3° bearing error would impact navigation for a distance of 10 km. Use trigonometry to illustrate your point.
Think about how bearings and distances relate geometrically.
