What is MGRS?
- is the geocoordinate standard used by NATO militaries for locating points on the earth. In most areas (between latitudes 80°S and 84°N), the MGRS grid is identical to the UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) grid system, but uses a different labeling convention. In the polar regions, MGRS is based on the Universal Polar Stereographic system. MGRS grid reference does not describe a point on the earth's surface, but rather a square area of 10km x 10km, 1km x 1km, 100m x 100m, 10m x 10m or 1m x 1m
