It means the map sheet is divided into grid squares... for example, military maps are divided into 1 square kilometer squares, to determine coordinates on various points of the map.
The grid shows the certain amount of miles/ kilometers on a map

Mention in two points how the grid system on a map helps us to locate places.
Let's check one more map grid before we call it a day.
The critical rule for reading a map to determine grid coordinates is to first determine the longitude (vertical lines) and then the latitude (horizontal lines) on the map that intersect at the point of interest. The grid coordinates are then expressed as a combination of the longitude and latitude lines.
A grid reference is a reference on a map. It refers to the indication of a location, as abbreviated by numbers, letters, or both.

The grid zone designation of a map can be determined from the UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) coordinates provided on the map. The UTM coordinates consist of the zone number and the easting and northing values, which help identify the specific grid zone on the map.
