UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) 5 Km Grid

Many geometrical schemes - or map projections - are used to represent the curved surface of the Earth on map sheets.

Canada uses the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) system. It is called transverse because the strips run north-south rather than east-west along the equator.

This data class shows a 5 km x 5 km grid coordinate system based on the UTM projection using the North American Datum 83 (NAD83). It includes a UTM Map Sheet Number.
