Plotting UTM Coordinates with a Grid Tool

Plotting UTM Coordinates with a Grid Tool

[stephenstewart]

Animations are superb and make this the clearest explanation I’ve ever seen.

Very well explained! A little tip from using the UTM grid in the (German) military: in order not to confuse N/E (first go up/down or left/right on the grid?), imagine a cat: the cat runs first TO a tree (i.e. first group of coordinates is horizontal direction), then the cat climbs UP the tree (i.e. the second group of coordinates is vertical direction).

This is the best walkthrough I have seen on this topic. Thank you.

Thank you for a clear explanation of this system. I was wondering how one set of coordinates contained more numbers than the other. I now understand how this is, because of your plain, uncomplicated, explanation. Thanks again.

Thanks man. You sell some really good quality protractors. I love mine. It’s laminated on both sides so the numbers and markings don’t wear off and is very strong yet flexible. The best I’ve found and for a very reasonable price

Thanks John for your videos. I just received my Super GTA MapTools grid reader in the mail today. Very helpful information sent with the grid reader for new people learning to read Topo maps.

I'm a beginner on landnav using topographic maps lensatic compass along with items I purchased from maptools and now without these videos on YouTube it's a big help because I'm self learning I will be watching more videos.

Thank you so much for this excellent explanation!! Your video will definitely help me teach this to my Scouts! I just placed an order this morning to purchase some of the products from your website!

Great video ! We learned "read right, up" although the "cat" is easy to remember.

[pjones]

Mate this helped me out heaps! Haven’t used maps in ages but this was a good reminder. Thanks!

[himesjon]

Great video. My $100 order is on its way, can't wait.

[dattran]

A nice refresher, simple and straight forward

[kjfuell]

Things are much better since I bought some of the Map Tools. My grandkids picked up on this quickly.

You've explained this very clearly. Thanks.
