Jacques Cartier, a French explorer, navigated primarily along the St. Lawrence River during his voyages in the 16th century, focusing on what is now Canada. He utilized traditional navigation methods of the time, relying on celestial navigation, compasses, and detailed maps of the Coastlines. Cartier made three major voyages (1534, 1535-1536, and 1541-1542), during which he explored and claimed land for France, establishing contact with Indigenous peoples and charting significant territories. His explorations laid the groundwork for future French colonization in North America.
