On-line map for grid references?

[Whittler Kev]

Do you know of an on-line map search that you can copy map references into and find the location?
e.g.
N 52° 42.746 E 001° 13.611
British Grid: TG 18060 17639
I've had Ordnance Survey suggested but prefers place names

Multimap's fine for eight digit refs, i.e. TG180176

try here http://wtp2.appspot.com/wheresthepath.htm it starts off in a place i dont know but you can move it to whare you like the best bit is it has an arial map on the right and an OS map on the left

from the TG par of your post it comes up as this http://wtp2.appspot.com/wheresthepa...4571555&lon=1.225597557943931&gz=14&oz=8&gt=1

Used google earth before for kite buggying locations, worked well for that.

Just tried the mobile page on my iPhone and it works really well....

Link top left "Select" is hard to spot, but has a drop down of the functions.

Bump as useful sites for getting out and about

 

[bri66]

Hi getamap works ok if you come down to 6 figure references,Brian

 

[Rebel]

This site also takes coordinates and grid references. It can convert them too.

http://www.nearby.org.uk/coord.cgi

Ordnance Survey's "Getamap" will take grid references quite happily but I don't think it does coordinates.

I like the "Where's the Path" site I'm going to play around there for awhile. Thanks for the link Father Jack.

 

[Whittler Kev]

Just a bumpity bump for all those loking for a good map site that takes coordinates etc
I prefer post 5
