GISsurfer | Military Grid Reference Sysytem (MGRS) Coordinates
WEBLearn MGRS with color-coded coordinates. Anyone can use the following 'live' GISsurfer map to help learn about Military Grid Reference Sysytem (MGRS) coordinates. This map with a MGRS grid will work in most browsers on most devices including cell phones.
WEBAn example of an MGRS coordinate, or grid reference, would be 4QFJ12345678, which consists of three parts: 4Q (grid zone designator, GZD) FJ (the 100,000-meter square identifier) 1234 5678 (numerical location; easting is 1234 and northing is 5678, in this case specifying a location with 10 m resolution)
WEBThe USNG is a coordinate reference system used for locating points and areas on the surface of the Earth and is functionally equivalent to the Military Grid Reference System (MGRS). The main difference between the two systems is in …

WEBThe MGRS format is designed to support measurement precisions of 1m, 10m, 100, 1,000m, and 10,000m. by truncating the grid coordinate values. When all of the coordinates you are working with are localized within the same 100,000 meter square identifier, it is permissible to drop the Grid Zone Designator and the 100,000 meter square id.

Smart Soldier: Understanding the Military Grid Reference System
WEBMar 7, 2022 · MGRS is the coordinate standard utilised by NATO militaries for locating points on the earth’s surface. MGRS is derived from a UTM grid system and is an alternative way of representing UTM coordinates [2]. The example map shown in Figure 2 has grid lines spaced every 1000 metres.
WEBThese strings, called MGRS coordinates or grid references, have three components: Grid zone designator. 100,000 meter square identifier. Increasingly granular squares. The basic building block of MGRS is the grid zone designator (GZD), adapted from the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) system.

WEBMGRS coordinates may be truncated to reflect lesser precision level. For example: 15SWC8081751205 is at one-meter refinement. 15SWC80815120 is at 10-meter refinement. 15SWC808512 is at 100-meter refinement. 15SWC8051 is at 1000-meter refinement. There are two lettering schemes for the 100,000-meter grid square designators.

WEBThe MGRS coordinate for the same one-meter square would be: 17R MP 08360. 01357. The MP replaces the 04 / 33 of the 100,000 meter square, and that’s the only difference. The coordinates above were expressed exactly that way in my GPS. Customarily, military coordinates are strung out as one long list of numbers and characters, as follows:
