location formats and map datums. Also visit the National Imagery
and Mapping Agency at

on grids and datums.

Changing the
Location Format
coordinates the system in which
a given location reading is shown. The default format is latitude
and longitude in degrees, minutes, and thousandths of a minute
(hddd°mm.mmm).
Map Datum Sub Tab
Datums are used to describe geographic locations for surveying,
mapping, and navigation and are not actual maps built in the unit.
The default setting is WGS 84. The unit automatically chooses the
best datum based on your chosen position format.
WARNING:
Selecting the wrong map datum can result in
substantial location errors. You should only change the position
format if you are using a map or chart that specifies a different
position format or map datum or want to use a format you are
familiar with.When in doubt, use the default WGS 84 datum for
best overall performance.
