project eastings and northings
Explanation:
Locations can be found using easting/northing (or x,y) pairs. The pair is usually represented conventionally with easting first, northing second.

For example, the peak of Mount Assiniboine (at 50°52′10″N 115°39′03″W) in UTM Zone 11 is represented by 11U 594934 5636174. Other conventions can also be used, such as a truncated grid reference,[2] which would shorten the example coordinates to 949-361.
