'My location' icon in maps.

My location in Maps App shows a blue beam, not clear what it means, when I rotate the map, the beam turns with it with half the rotation. It is not the North direction, but what is it then? It is in any case confusion and got last in The Hague Netherlands.

the beam shows where your phone is "pointing" if you hold it horizontally.
