O aplikaciji

🗺️ UK Grid Tools – Grid Reference Finder, Postcode Finder & Coordinate Converter
The most accurate way to convert GPS coordinates into British National Grid References, OSGB36, and UK Postcodes — online and offline.

📍 WHAT IT DOES
UK Grid Tools is a free, professional-grade app that helps you convert your current location (GPS / WGS84 / ETRS89) into:

- 📌 British National Grid Reference
- 📌 OSGB36 (15) coordinates
- 📌 UK Postcode (powered by postcodes.io + offline fallback)
- 📌 Shareable location formats for maps and messaging

Designed for surveyors, engineers, outdoor enthusiasts, GIS professionals, and anyone needing accurate UK location data — the app ensures your coordinates are within 1 metre of accuracy.

🧠 WHY IT’S ACCURATE
Most apps rely on an outdated 7-parameter Helmert transformation, which can introduce errors of 3–10m or more across Great Britain.

UK Grid Tools uses the Ordnance Survey OSTN15 transformation model via a 20km grid implementation to achieve:

- ✅ <0.15m horizontal accuracy in 95% of the UK

- ✅ Fully compliant OSGB36(15) values

- ✅ True 10-figure Grid Reference precision

This makes it the most accurate grid reference finder available on Android today.

📫 POSTCODE FINDER (HYBRID ONLINE & OFFLINE)
We use the postcodes.io API to instantly retrieve your UK postcode from your GPS location. If you're offline, the app automatically uses a local fallback geocoder (where available) to still show a postcode — making it great for use in the field.
