(instance MagneticDeclinationFn BinaryFunction) Geography.kif 5195-5195 Magnetic declination is an instance of binary function
(documentation MagneticDeclinationFn EnglishLanguage "MagneticDeclinationFn takes in the latitude and longitude in AngleMeasure and returns the magnetic declination as an angle measure for that location. Magnetic declination is the angle between magnetic north and true north at a particular location on the Earth's surface, expressed in degrees and minutes east or west to indicate the direction of magnetic north from headingWRTTrueNorth. The angle can change over time due to polar wandering. By convention, declination is positive when magnetic north is east of the true north, and negative when it is to the west.[Wikipedia]") Geography.kif 5196-5203 Magnetic declination is an instance of binary function
(domain MagneticDeclinationFn 1 Latitude) Geography.kif 5204-5204 The number 1 argument of magnetic declination is an instance of latitude
