Position formats

The position format is the way your GPS position is displayed on the watch. All the formats relate to the same location, they only express it in a different way.

You can change the position format in the watch settings under Navigation » Position format.

Latitude/longitude is the most commonly used grid and has three different formats:

  • WGS84 Hd.d°
  • WGS84 Hd°m.m'
  • WGS84 Hd°m's.s

Other common position formats available include:

  • UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) gives a two-dimensional horizontal position presentation.
  • MGRS (Military Grid Reference System) is an extension of UTM and consists of a grid zone designator, 100,000-meter square identifier and a numerical location.

Suunto Spartan Trainer Wrist HR also supports the following local position formats:

  • BNG (British)
  • ETRS-TM35FIN (Finnish)
  • KKJ (Finnish)
  • IG (Irish)
  • RT90 (Swedish)
  • SWEREF 99 TM (Swedish)
  • CH1903 (Swiss)
  • UTM NAD27 (Alaska)
  • UTM NAD27 Conus
  • UTM NAD83
  • NZTM2000 (New Zealand)
NOTE:

Some position formats cannot be used in the areas north of 84° and south of 80°, or outside the countries that they are intended for. If you are outside the allowed area, your location coordinates cannot be displayed on the watch.
