;MGRS: Military Grid Reference System (MGRS)is the geocoordinate standard used by NATO for locating points on the earth. The MGRS is derived from the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) grid system and the universal polar stereographic (UPS) grid system, but uses a different labelling convention. The MGRS is used for the entire earth. An 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)
: '''12345678''' (numerical location; easting is 1234 and northing is 5678, in this case specifying a location with 10 m resolution).
