Re: Planquadrate

The best tool is just a German map :-) I also have a special converter. Please check your e-mail box.

Re: Planquadrate

Trouble is there would be several place huge didtances apart with the same reference! But the date is the key to which one!

Re: Planquadrate

John,

You want the wonderful tools available at SES' site here:

http://www.gyges.dk/reporting_grids.htm

First three links (map, LUMA tool, LUMA guide) below "The Jägergradnetz" are what you want in this case.

Re: Planquadrate

Using the above, I make:

52233 = 1.5km S of the centre of Velp
52238 = Between Lingewaard and Arnhem
52291 = A few km S of Nijmegen
52296 = About 3km WNW of KranenBurg, near the road to Nijmegen
62356 = About halfway between Sonsbeck and Weeze
