Drift and transport wander

Hello all,

For my study had to investigate the basic six instruments. I had to find out what a gyroscope is and what the properties are.

I know what drift and transport wander is but the thing that is not clear to me is to what sort of gyroscope the 2 properties relate, horizontal gyroscopes or vertical gyroscopes.
Second thing that is not clear to me are the terms "local north" "local vertical" and "local east". Maybe someone has a site with an animation or clear figures.

Thanks in advance

Lars
