Access this menu by going to “Coordinates list” menu first. We moved the button to the top to make it a lot easier to see.

You may import/export current coordinates list between iOS devices. by attaching exported txt/gpx file, copy paste raw text file, transfer via Airdrop, and more.

Yes! .gpx file support is here!

Export .gpx file to other apps, Garmin GPS, and more. And you may import the coordinates back into the app too!

By the way, let’s go through how the app can import .gpx file

Here is how the app see .gpx file or supported .txt file in email app

After that, press “Import data” to begin importing data.

You will have option to choose between replacing all existing coordinates or append to existing list.



Quick pin navigation

Main focus here is the new grey “Pin Navigation Bar”.

Press arrow buttons to browse between selected pin. Pin name is shown on the middle, and you may edit pin informations by pressing on it.

You no longer have to go to the list menu to edit pin name.

If you wish to change pin format. you may do that by selecting new format first then press overwrite result.

Just like that, no need to drop pin again to make change!

Distance measurement

Screenshot 2019-08-21 02.03.37.png

Press ruler button to begin distance measurement.

Then you may measure distance between pin or just draw your own line

It just works. Just like Area app!

*Version 6.0 doesn’t yet support saving of distance data.

And there are a lot more features Please check change logs down below.

We will keep the same subscribe pricing probably until we finish implementing distance measurement feature.

As usual, if you subscribe now, you get the same price forever!

Closing note:

It’s been a busy August for us. Many weeks of lacking sleep, but we’re very happy with the result. We’ve done coding Elevation 4.0 and Coordinates 6.0. And we believe both update are really awesome.

Most importantly, we hope you will enjoy using the app as well!

Have a great day,

Apikrit

Coordinates 4.5 : World Magnetic Model Calculator

Hello,

It’s been a week with a lot of updates

Coordinates 4.5 adds three more features! (I would call this version 5.0 if I could polish its design a bit more).

  1. World Magnetic Model Calculator!

asdasdasd.png

It’s now possible to calculate these information related to geomagnetic fields

D = Declination (Degree)

I = Inclination (Degree)

X = North Intensity (nT)

Y = East Intensity (nT)

H = Horizontal Intensity (nT)

Z = Vertical Intensity (nT)

F = Total Intensity (nT)

GV = Magnetic Grid Variation (Degree)

Press Magnet icon on the main page to view these information

Press on Altitude or Date to make changes to these value

Select WMM model to use in setting menu (WMM2015 or WMM2015v2)

2. View more coordinates at once

Press Number 2 icon on the main view to turn on secondary coordinates banner.

Select coordinates type as you wish.

3. View transformed coordinates on map

qweqweqwe.png

In transform coordinates menu, all coordinates type will be available to view on map.

However, it’s not possible to save pin as this time.

4. Performance Boost

We removed redundancy calculations from the app. It should works faster on slower devices.

Instruction will be updated soon.

Some good news

Hello everyone, I’m delighted to talk about new updates to our apps today.

Coordinates

VERSION 3.6!

We added whole new section to this app: Coordinates convertor.

Now you can convert lat & long coordinates, geodetic datums and projected systems. Search online database for any system / datum.

Press EPSG button to access this page

 
Sorry for bad UI. We will update this soon once we received more feedback

Search spartal reference list online

Search spartal reference list online

 

If search result is not available. Note that you can put your own custom system. Make sure it’s in proj4 format. for example:

+proj=lcc +lat_1=42.6833319 +lat_2=41.71666666666667 +lat_0=41 +lon_0=-71.5 +x_0=200000 +y_0=750000 +ellps=GRS80 +units=m +no_defs

put this line in code textbox and it will works just fine.


Area

now we have new name for this app

Area & Distance - Map Measure

Yes. It’s now possible to measure distance within this app. We decided to merge DistancePinner into this one app.

Area and Distance in one app

Area and Distance in one app

 


The best thing with this update is that you no longer need to place center pin before start measuring! Any complex shape will works now as long as there’s no overlapping line!


Elevation

elev2.png

The app is back up and running as normal. However, we need to add timer between each data access or we can’t provide the best app experience to everyone.


Blastsim

blastsim2.png

We added bunch of new localization. We still need more downloads to match our past BlastSim app.


We admit we releases new version very often during the past week. Sorry for inconvenience . In the meantime we will update documentation on this website to reflect new feature of our apps.

Again, feel free to contact us for any suggestion, or just talk to us! and we are sorry that we are unable to answer them all during last year.

That’s all about it. See you again next time!

Ps. Anyway, I’m still curious that is anyone is reading this blog. If you want to show that you came pass this, please write “ Katamari “ on the subject section and send me a message lol.
Not required. Just for fun :)
