How this direction is calculated
The 109° bearing is the great-circle heading from Tripoli (32.8872, 13.1913) to the Kaaba, measured clockwise from true north. A magnetic compass does not point to true north — the error, called magnetic declination, changes by place and by year. The live tool corrects for it.
