Hi. I used to be a bit of a GPS junkie, for mapping, hiking and various other. I like the route/track tools and functionality here on plotaroute.com. Just wondering if I can change the plotaroute Lat/Long display (in top right of map screen) to decimal minutes, instead of the default decimal degrees? Is the Lat/Long displayed in datum WGS84? Thank you.

Hi Neil - we don't have a setting for this at present (we've only recently added the display of lat/lng coordinates to the site), but I've added this to our Feature Requests list (number 91) where anyone interested in it can vote for it. Currently the coordinates displayed are WGS84.

Or for those of us in the UK - can we have the option to view as OS Grid Refs please :)

That's a good diea Chris - thanks. We've created a Feature Request for this where people can vote for it.

As an aside, if you already have OS coordinates and want to search for them on the map you can do this in the route planner.

Thanks - I didn't know that you could search for them that way. Part way there then :)
