TTG True North UT UTM XTE Time To Go (TTG) is the measurement of how long it will take you to arrive at your destination. TTG is based on how fast you are moving towards the destination and the distance remaining. The direction to the geographical North Pole from an observer's position. The north direction on any geographical meridian. Universal Time, formerly referred to as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) is the metric grid system used on most large and intermediate scale land topographic charts and maps. Cross Track Error (XTE) is the distance, left or right, of the desired courseline. The courseline is a straight line from your present position to your destination. 40

cal meridian.
UT
Universal Time, formerly referred to as
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
UTM
Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) is
the metric grid system used on most
large and intermediate scale land
