A single key metric. Your position on The Grid at any given moment. Coordinates are precise, binary, and owned by a named Station.
Measurement & Performance
Measurement and Performance terms define how the Expedition knows where it actually is, not where it thinks it is. The Grid holds the coordinates. Coordinates are precise and owned. Drift is detected by reading the delta between intended direction and actual position. Navigation without measurement is story-telling.

The Grid
The company's measurement system. The coordinate system everything is plotted against. If it is not on The Grid, it is not being managed -- it is being narrated.
Station
The human seat in Waypost. A person holds a Station. It defines their territory, their Mandate, their Post Roster, and their accountability to the Expedition.
A Veer
Movement away from the intended Bearing without a decision to move. Not failure -- an undetected Bearing Change. Small Veers compound quietly.
