The NH97 national grid square measures 10 km by 10 km and has an area of 1,000 kilometres squared.
The technical term for a 10 km map square is a Hectad.
When this 10 km square is divided into a grid 10 by 10 it gives the next size of grid square. This unit is called a Monad and measures 1km square. 100 monads fit in a 10km square.
Out of the monads generated from square NH97, 376 are land and -276 are sea. Sea squares are disregarded on this site as they contain no land features.
