Systems and methods for use in generating alerts regarding terrain near aircraft are provided. A method includes determining a location of interest relative to an aircraft using a terrain awareness and warning system. The method further includes calculating a distance value and a bearing value for the location of interest relative to the aircraft. The method further includes providing first display data to an electronic display and providing second display data to the electronic display. The first display data is configured to cause the electronic display to show an aircraft situation display image indicating the location of interest relative to the aircraft. The second display data is configured to cause the electronic display to show the calculated distance value and the calculated bearing value.
