Red or pink marks on your charts will not be visible at night when the red light is the only light on. N C D 36-00 N W 102 15’ W Wġ0 Cell Grid System Can be used on any kind of chart that has lines of lat/long 1° blocks identified by the intersection of whole numbers of lat/long, such as 36-00N and W Points are designated with the latitude first (36 /102) and they identify the area north and west of the intersection of these two lines Grids can be subdivided into smaller sections Letters are used to define sub-grids Alternate system to CAP Grid System.ġ1 Marking Grid Charts You can use a new sectional - normally not updated unless it gets worn out Use a Hi-Lighter (not pink) to mark grid boundaries on the chart using a long ruler Mark grid identification in black ink for easy visibility You should always keep a current sectional with you even if you have a sectional which is marked with grids You can make a master grid chart and then mark up your current navigation chart with selected grids as needed. Continue in this manner until reaching the southeast corner of the gridded area which serves as the last full 15 minute quadrangle. The first full 15-minute quadrangle in the northwest corner of the chart is numbered “One” and numbered in sequence from west to east. MKC for Kansas City) and the grid number.Įach grid on the sectional is assigned a number In this example, the grid depicted is on the St Louis Sectional STL 159 Grids are subdivided into smaller sections Letters are used to define sub-grids STL 159A W W 36-15 N A B 8.10.1 Objective 8.12 – State the size of a full and a one-quarter standardized grid.

Overlapping chart grids will use the identifier of the primary chart (e.g.

Where charts overlap, the grids on all charts will be assigned the number and identifier of the primary chart (the most westerly chart will be designated as the primary chart).

Overlays standard sectional maps Subdivides the map into distinct working areas Each grid is 1/4° (15 minutes) of latitude by 1/4° of longitude and is assigned a number Grids are further divided into sub-grids labeled A, B, C, and D Each sectional has a standard for assigning grid numbers - for areas of overlap the grid number of the most westerly chart is used Only a couple of charts in the US have overlaps. Expired gridded charts may be used only for reference or training purposes (gridding). National SAR Supplement to the International Aeronautical and Maritime SAR Manual, grid a sectional.

Some run north and south (latitude) Others run east and west (longitude) Where they cross defines a point on the earth By convention, latitude is stated first Points are defined as x degrees of latitude and y degrees of longitude.ĥ Latitude Lines of latitude run east and west State the size of a full and a one-quarter Cell grid system grid.Ĥ Locating a Position Use a system of imaginary lines Given coordinates and a sectional, use the Cell Grid System to draw a search grid.
