A direction is recorded for 87% of the cameras here (41 of 47 cameras).

The most common recorded direction is west, with 10 cameras. Because 5 cameras carry two directions and are counted once in each, the eight counts add up to 46 directions from 41 cameras. A direction of exactly 0 is treated as not recorded, because that value is often left on a pin nobody set; that leaves out 4 cameras here.

The direction is the compass bearing a mapper noted for the camera, as it stood when they looked.
