Explanation
How is GMT calculated? When it is 7 am in New York, it is 12 noon in Greenwich, because New York is west of Greenwich. For western longitudes, add the time difference to the local time. (And for eastern longitudes, subtract the time difference). We need to find the time at Greenwich (GMT) in order to calculate the chart.
