| |
| − | | |
| − | The Singapore/Johor Bahru graticule is at latitude 1, longitude 103. It covers most of [[wikipedia: Singapore|Singapore]] except for [[wikipedia: Pulau_Tekong|Pulau Tekong]] and some reclaimed land east of Changi Airport. It also encompasses parts of Johor, Malaysia, such as Johor Bahru and Pasir Gudang, and bits of the Indonesian Riau islands.
| |
| − | | |
| − | About half of the graticule is composed of land; the rest is made up of the Straits of Singapore and the Straits of Malacca.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The neighboring (1, 104) graticule may make a good backup for some days where the Singapore/Johor Bahru graticule yields coordinates over water in the Straits of Malacca.
