    Hi Lads

    Sorry if this is the wrong place but im looking for some help on this, can anyone tell me if there is a way to get co-ordinates from this map http://ims0.osiemaps.ie/website/publicviewer/main.aspx#V1,681538,715125,7

    Zoom out to a scale of 1:50000 and that will give you Eastings and Northings
    I did notice that some grid squares are bigger than others this might affect some readings.

    TBH I wouldn't try nav off it. would be OK for a route planner.

    The exact cordinates are in the URL you gave (In ITM projection)

    681538, 715125

    You can also read them off the small box in the lower left as you move your mouse.

    Its very accurate - there is a tool on the OSI page you need to sign up for to convert ITM to the older IG cordinates if thats what you want.

    “Roll it back”
