What do UTM coordinates mean?
Universal Transverse Mercator
UTM is the acronym for Universal Transverse Mercator, a plane coordinate grid system named for the map projection on which it is based (Transverse Mercator). The UTM system consists of 60 zones, each 6-degrees of longitude in width.
How do you read UTM coordinates?
UTM coordinate of a point is stated by writing the zone, easting and then northing values. When finding a position on a map, it is helpful to “read right up”, that is to read west to east to find the easting and then south to north to find the northing of the location.
What is a UTM zone on a map?
The UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) coordinate system divides the world into sixty north-south zones, each 6 degrees of longitude wide. UTM zones are numbered consecutively beginning with Zone 1, which includes the westernmost point of Alaska, and progress eastward to Zone 19, which includes Maine.
What is UTM coordinates vs latitude longitude?
UTM Provides a constant distance relationship anywhere on the map. In angular coordinate systems like latitude and longitude, the distance covered by a degree of longitude differs as you move towards the poles and only equals the distance covered by a degree of latitude at the equator.
Are Google Earth GPS coordinates accurate?
Relative to Landsat GeoCover, the 436 Google Earth control points have a positional accuracy of 39.7 meters RMSE (error magnitudes range from 0.4 to 171.6 meters).
How do I pull UTM data from Google Analytics?
To find your UTM data in Google Analytics, navigate to analytics.google.com » Acquisition » Campaigns » All Campaigns.
- Please note the different Primary Dimensions you can select to really dig into this data:
- The Primary Dimensions include Campaign, Source, Medium, and Source / Medium.
How do I change my UTM coordinates?
To do this, open up the “Predefined” directory, then open up the “Projected Coordinate Systems” directory, and then the “UTM” directory as shown below. Now open up the “Nad 1983” directory and select the UTM Zone you want to change the Data Frame into, in this case it will be “NAD 1983 UTM Zone 10N”. Click OK.
