UTM zones are numbered 1 through 60, starting at the international date line, longitude 180Â°, and proceeding east. Zone 1 extends from 180Â° W to 174Â° W and is centered on 177Â° W. Each zone is divided into horizontal bands spanning 8 degrees of latitude.
The basic unit of latitude and longitude is the degree (), but degrees are a large unit so we often have to deal with subdivisions of a degree. Sometimes we just use a decimal point, such as 35.789 N. This format is referred to as decimal degrees.
