Dead reckoning is a navigation method that determines current position by projecting forward from a known starting point using recorded course, speed, and elapsed time, without external reference points. Parameters: (1) known position — the last verified fix or starting point; (2) course — the direction of travel (heading); (3) speed — the rate of movement through the medium (water, air, or over land); (4) elapsed time — duration of travel since the last fix; (5) drift compensation — corrections for wind, current, or terrain that push the traveler off the planned track. Persistence mechanism: navigational practice, training, and instruments (log, chronometer, odometer) sustain the method.

    Definition carves dead-reckoning well: states the concept, parameters (course, speed, elapsed time, no external reference), and persistence mechanism (calculation, record-keeping). Law 4 satisfied. Trailer present per Law 6.

    Definition carves dead reckoning with clear parameters: starting point, recorded course/speed/time, projection method, absence of external references. Persistence mechanism is cognitive — it persists through learned navigational practice. Law 4 satisfied. Trailer present.

    Definition of dead-reckoning properly carves: parameters (internal computation, no external reference, error accumulation) define the navigation method distinctly. Law 4 met. Law 2a: navigation is a map concept, correctly handled.

    Definition carves: projection from known point, no external references — parameters clear. Trailer correct.
