About the North Navigation Arrow black filled icon
A slim chevron arrowhead points straight up with a capital letter N floating above its tip, the standard shorthand for map orientation. The mark communicates heading, true bearing and which way is up on a plan, so it fits map corners in navigation and delivery apps, floor plans and site drawings, GPS dashboards, survey documents and travel presentations where readers need to know where north lies.
The arrowhead is drawn as an open V with a notched base, tall and narrow so it reads at small sizes, and the N sits at matching stroke weight for balance. Pair it with compass, map pin and direction arrow icons from the library. Place it at 24px or larger in a map corner so the letter stays legible.
This is the solid black filled version of the north navigation arrow icon: a bold silhouette that reads clearly at 16-24 px and on dark or busy backgrounds, and prints well in one colour.
