Graticulate

/ɡræˈtɪkjəˌleɪt/ verb

Definition

To mark or provide with a graticule (a grid pattern of lines); to create a lattice or grid structure on a surface.

Etymology

From Latin 'graticulum' (small grid, diminutive of 'cratis,' wicker) plus the verb suffix '-ate.' This technical term emerged in cartography and scientific work.

Kelly Says

Cartographers 'graticulate' maps by marking latitude and longitude lines—a technique that's been used for over 2,000 years to make maps transferable and searchable, basically the medieval version of adding GPS coordinates.
