Mapreading

Qns:
Eric: 8 digit grip reference
Nameless: 6 number grid how to do?
Nameless: Teach me on Settlement and contour lines?

Miss ST:
I guess that you guys are referring to the 6 digit grid reference in mapreading.

1st and 2nd digit: Locate the 4 digit grid reference  identifying the square that the item lies in. Next read the HORIZONTAL LEFT digits.

3rd digit: Divide the horizontal line (within the square into 10 equal parts, then draw a dotted line down from the object to locate its number)

4th and 5th digit: Read the VERTICAL BOTTOM digits. It will always be the smaller number if you cant remember. 

6th digit: Divide the verical line (within the square into 10 equal parts, then draw a dotted line down from the object to locate its number)

Settlement patterns: refer to earlier posts.

Contour lines: Will discuss in class

Clester: How to find the bearing of a location?
Will go through in class.
