What is a graticule?
1 November 2019
In cartography, a graticule is a network of lines representing meridians and parallels, on which a map or plan can be represented. On many maps of the world, the gridlines of latitude and longitude allow you to get a sense of where a location or area is relative to the poles, the equator, or east/west in a hemisphere.
