100 km Square NT A 100 × 100 km grid square within the zone/band. Column letter N (west–east) and row letter T (south–north).
Easting 92117 Distance east within the 100 km square. 5-digit value = 10 m resolution. Multiply by 1 to get meters.
Northing 53145 Distance north within the 100 km square. Same resolution as easting (10 m).
