A merchant used many things to help with their navigation. They had to travel a lot, so they would use them frequently. They would use the tools that scientists provided for them. For example, accurate maps, atlases and books of maps. They would have to use these things a lot because they cannot make money without traveling and they can't travel without these tools. They did have a long term impact because we used the Muslim knowledge of these things to improve on them and create modern maps, atlases, ect. Without that, we would be very far behind.
