The Toulouse graticule is at latitude 43N and longitude 1E. It encloses the whole metropolitan area of Toulouse (Haute-Garonne), barely scratches the edge of the southern surburbs of Montauban (Tarn-et-Garonne), expands to the south all the way past Pamiers (Ariège), stopping just before Saint-Girons and Foix, covers Castelnaudary (Aude) in the east, and ends several kilometers after L'Isle-Jourdain (Gers) in the east. In the northeast, it cuts Graulhet in half (Tarn), includes Gaillac but leaves Albi out. Thus, it touches 6 departments in total, the highest number out of all the graticules in the Occitanie region.
