The Broad-scale grid is defined by the points within this data file. It is used for Broad-scale gridding applications. Each rectangle in the grid is 0.05 degrees latitude by 0.05 degrees longitude. The area is the area, in km2, that the grid point represents. The field names are as follows:
For information relating to the development of the grid, see the Grid Report
