Grid squares were developed to shortly identify locations anywhere on the Earth. The world is first divided into 324 areas (AA ~ RR) called “fields”. Each field is then divided into 100 “squares” (00 ~ 99). Each square is further divided into 576 “sub-squares” (AA ~ XX). The world is eventually divided into 18, 662, 400 grids; each grid is expressed with 6 digits.
