The pole star or north star known as "polaris" can for the puposes of practical navigation be taken as 0.5 degrees. For sciences requiring greater precision eg Astronomy, consult websites of authorative bodies such as the National observatories of various countries such as the USNO. That is the United States Naval Observatory.
