The vertical intensity and direction of the earth's magnetic field the inclination influences the horizontal plane of a compass needle according to the latitude where it is used. Due to inclination compasses must be balanced for different geographical zones in order to keep the needle in a horizontal position. Previously the globe was divided into five different balance zones in which specific compasses functioned. However as people travel more and more the need for a compass with a greater geographical range has increased. Thanks to Suunto's 'Two Zone System' there are only two balance zones to consider in compass use - the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere. In practice this means that a Suunto compass designed for the northern hemisphere will still work for a fair distance into the southern hemisphere and vice-versa. Suunto also makes globally balanced compasses which can be used accurately all over the world.
