You also know that 1,000meter easting grid values are expressed by three digit numbers. Therefore, the first three digits of theeasting value represents the 289 grid line. The longitude value of the graticule tick is 252.26 meters fromthe 289 grid line (fig 3-10).Figure 3-10. Lines showing 77° 25'W.(9) You must also convert the easting meter value to centimeters in order to accurately plot iton the grid. To do this multiply the 252.26 meter value by the conversion factor (.002). This gives youa centimeter measurement of .505 right of grid line 289 (fig 3-10). This point represents the longitudevalue of the graticule tick.55
