1. Identify the scale of the map. The map scale is the ratio (1:50,000) of the distance on the map (1 inch) compared to the distance on the ground. (usually 50,000 inches). 2. Convert a straight-line map. distance to miles, meters, or yards.
Convert a road map distance to miles, meters, or yards using the map's bar scale. This is the actual distance you have to travel to reach the point whose straight line distance you identified in step 2.
Create any military map symbol (ADP 1-02) and add custom presets if you choose. Drag the symbol onto Google/Leaflet Maps and enable the MGRS overlay for operations planning.
Plan missions by drawing directly on the map. Measure distances, find MGRS coordinates, calculate azimuth, and so much more.
