Prior to 1972, this time was called Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) but is now referred to as Coordinated Universal Time or Universal Time Coordinated (UTC). It is a coordinated time scale, maintained by the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM). It is also known as Z time or Zulu Time.
UTC is a time standard used worldwide. At any time, the current UTC time is the same as Greenwich Meridian Time, or GMT, the time zone used in England, western Europe and western Africa. UTC is used to calculate the times in individual time zones worldwide.
