Map and Globe Terms.

In map making, or Cartography, there are many different standard elements. These elements appear on almost all maps. Four common standard elements are:

United States National Grid (USNG) National standard since 2001National standard since 2001 Adopted by federal agenciesAdopted by federal agencies –FEMA, DHS, NGA, USGS Adopted by several statesAdopted by several states –Florida, Missouri, North Carolina, others –Minnesota (March 25, 2009) Military Grid Referencing SystemMilitary Grid Referencing System –Metric system

Why? Multiple gridsMultiple grids –Needed one for everyone Need efficient location referencingNeed efficient location referencing Need interoperabilityNeed interoperability –Across jurisdictions –Local, state, federal, military

What about Lat / Long? Not intuitiveNot intuitive –Degrees, minutes, seconds Several formatsSeveral formats –DMS, DMS.sss, DM.mmm, D.ddd –Longitude + / - + / - West / eastWest / east Increases right to leftIncreases right to left

What about Lat / Long?
