Measure Distance on a Military Map. A graphic scale is a ruler printed on the map and is used to convert distances on the map to actual ground distances. The graphic scale is divided into two parts. To the right of the zero, the scale is marked in full units of measure and is called the primary scale.
13 paź 2015 · TBS-PAT-1002f Given a military topographic map, protractor, string, and paper, determine distance between two points using bar scale within tolerance of 30 meters. Maps. Definition of Maps. A...
Soldiers must know how to determine locations of points on a map, measure distances and azimuths, and identify symbols on a map. They must also be able to determine the elevation and relief of areas on standard military maps.
26 lip 2016 · Soldiers are required to know how to plot MGRS coordinates on a map with nothing but a military protractor, and how to find those coordinates in the field with a map and compass.
30 paź 2023 · Military protractors play a pivotal role in accurate map reading. By aligning the protractor with the map’s grid lines, you can quickly determine coordinates, angles, and distances, which are essential for successful navigation.
1. Identify the scale of the map. The map scale is the ratio (1:50,000) of the distance on map (1 inch) relative to the distance on the ground (usually 50,000 inches). 2. Convert a straight-line map distance to miles, meters, or yards using the map's bar scale (Figure 071-329-1008-1). Figure 1. Bar scales.
Plan missions by drawing directly on the map. Measure distances, find MGRS coordinates, calculate azimuth, and so much more.
