When you want to compare something or measure something, in order to make the comparison you have to know and agree where you are starting from. The point at which you are starting is your "reference point"
A reference point in physics is a point in space, regardless of the type of geometry that you are using, that stays still and does not move. From this point, the behavior of an object moving through that space can be determined. In three-dimensional space, the reference point is usually considered to be the zero point where all 3 axes are 0.
A Reference Point is something you use to determine the position of an object, but the reference point has to be something that doesn't move at all.
For Example: A Tree
which another thing is being compared with
A reference point is a not changing point often called stationary. I is use to compare data to
A Point of reference or reference point or it can also be Frame of Reference is a Point which other things can be compared or reffered. It must be in a fixed point. :)

A reference point helps to explain why we are, where we are.
If your reference point it moving, then it cannot be considered a reference point. Your reference point should be something constant. Something that can be relative to any situation. If it moves, you lose this relativity.
No because enable to see if the object is moving it needs a reference point other than itself.
To support you in specifying how the reference point is placed and how the object is moved away from the reference point.
The north star is the most common reference point.

What is the fixed reference point in the photos?
Its position, relative to the point of reference.
If your reference point it moving, then it cannot be considered a reference point. Your reference point should be something constant. Something that can be relative to any situation. If it moves, you lose this relativity.
Without a fixed Point of Reference, there is nothing to be relative to.

a good reference point is a very large tree when driving on a road
To support you in specifying how the reference point is placed and how the object is moved away from the reference point.
The north star is the most common reference point.
1.)Distance from the reference point. 2.)A reference point. 3.)Direction from the reference point.
It's important to know that you reference point is moving because if an object is in motion and if it changes position it is relevant to a reference point.
The reference point should be stationary, or not moving.
