The equator is located at 0 degrees latitude on a map grid, dividing the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
The grid zone designation of a map can be determined from the UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) coordinates provided on the map. The UTM coordinates consist of the zone number and the easting and northing values, which help identify the specific grid zone on the map.
You would use a protractor or a compass to determine a grid azimuth on a map. These tools help you measure the angle between a grid line and the north direction on the map, providing the azimuth reading.
