Abstract
The Unique Grid Cell Identification (UGCI) system was created using the Croatian cartographic map grid system as a basis for development. A short description of the Croatian map grid system is therefore provided. Cartographic map nomenclature is used to uniquely identify map sheets; e.g. grid cells. Nonetheless, because such nomenclature uses alpha-numeric and special characters and complex coding/decoding systems, it is not well suited for use with GIS, databases, internet services and other Information and Communications Technologies applications. UGCI has been developed to uniquely identify all spatial grid cells, no matter their scale. It should enable easy connections with spatial grid cell identifier systems of other Spatial Data Infrastructure communities, such as ecology, geology, meteorology, etc. Easier identification and use of spatial grid cells contributes to the interoperability of maps and other spatial data. Map is cowering Croatian grid area in the scale 1:1 800,000. It is representing grids scales from 1:250,000 to 1:5000.
