The United States National Grid (USNG) is a multi-purpose location system of grid references used in the United States. It provides a nationally consistent "language of location", optimized for local applications, in a compact, user friendly format.
It is part of the Eastern Interconnection grid operating an electric transmission system serving all or parts of Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia.
The electric power transmission grid of the contiguous United States consists of 120,000 miles (190,000 km) of lines operated by 500 companies. The electrical power grid that powers Northern America is not a single grid, but is instead divided into multiple wide area synchronous grids. [1]
These topographic maps use the USNG as the grid system. Find below links to state systems for the distribution of mapping products which include the USNG. Currently, only the states of Iowa and Minnesota provide a comprehensive series of USNG maps for the entire state.
After a disaster, when the “normal” means to describe locations, such as street signs, are gone, the U.S. National Grid provide a standardized grid reference system that is seamless across jurisdictional boundaries and allows for pinpointing exact locations.
Here in Ohio, our Map projection system consist of two zones, North or South. Both zones are Lambert Conformal (Cone) projections, utilizing a submerged cone and the mathematical shape used to best represent the earth's surface (Ellipsoid).
Electric distribution utilities (EDUs) have distinct geographical boundaries that the interactive electricity maps pulls data from for Ohioans to view information within a specific search. These searches include searching within a specific city, township, neighborhood or address.
