Locational data is required but only one or the other of the methods is to be used. You may chose to define a site by Latitude/Longitude or UTM, not both. Whatever is provided will be used to calculate the other value. In Tribal Mod, UTM data is read only so ONLY Latitude/Longitude values are accepted.
Angular distance north or south of the equator measured in decimal degrees. An LDP required locational data field.
Angular distance east or west of the prime meridian at Greenwich, England, measured in decimal degrees. An LDP required locational data field.
The Universal Transverse Mercator zone number. The Universal Transverse Mercator is a grid system based on the transverse Mercator projection, applied between latitudes 84 degrees north and 80 degrees south on the Earth's surface.
The value added to all "x" values in the rectangular coordinates for a map projection. This value frequently is assigned to eliminate negative numbers. Expressed in the unit of measure identified in Planar Coordinate Units.
The value added to all "y" values in the rectangular coordinates for a map projection. This value frequently is assigned to eliminate negative numbers. Expressed in the unit of measure identified in Planar Coordinate Units.
Code identifying a method used to determine latitude and longitude.
A description of the reference datum used to determine a latitude/longitude reading.
The LDP source scale code for a site transaction. This describes the scale used in determining the latitude and longitude.
Description of the accuracy as a range of the latitude/longitude reported in meters. Only the least accurate measurement needs to be recorded whether is latitude or longitude.
The elevation in meters above or below Mean Sea Level (MSL) of the site.
The building or street location of the monitoring site, if one exists.
A FIPS code to uniquely identify the city within whose legal boundaries the site is located.
A code indicating in which of the established urbanized areas the site is located.
The Air Quality Control Region (AQCR) code identifies a group of counties within a state, or counties from multiple states that share common geographical or pollutant concentration characteristics based on a common pollutant source.
A description of the prevalent land use within 1/4 mile of a site.
A locational setting.
