![]() The quads are assigned numbers (equivalent of the range) beginning with zero (0) in (equivalent of the township) beginning with "A" in the south and increasing through "Z" and "AA" to "GG" northward. The State is divided into a regular grid with each cell (or "quad") being five minutes of latitude by five minutes of longitude. The system was developed by the Carter Oil Company to mimic the township and range location system in areas Grid, based on latitude and longitude, used to locate oil and gas well data in Kentucky. Conversely, if you inserted a regular measured grid and change the coordinate system to a UTM system these components become available.FAQ: What is the Carter coordinate system? If you change the grid’s coordinate system to a non-UTM system some components, like Grid Zone Designation Labels, will be removed because they are no longer applicable. When you add an MGRS grid from the default grid styles, Pro automatically determines what UTM zone your map is in and sets the grid to that coordinate system (if your map falls in more than one zone, only one is selected). MGRS grids also work for some industry specifications. If you need to provide more context for UTM coordinates, an MGRS grid may be right for you. The UTM coordinate system has some additional grid components, like 100,000m Grid Zone Labels and Grid Zone Designation Labels. MGRS ( Military Grid Reference System) grids are special measured grids showing UTM coordinates. Here 2 MGRS grids are used to show the correct coordinates. Stockholm, Sweden is a city split between 2 UTM zones.
