For navigation on Marnewaard (Groningen — Lauwersmeer), MGRS is the standard for passing positions unambiguously. The centre point of the area and its grid zone are shown alongside, computed on the WGS84 ellipsoid. Click the coordinate to copy it.
An MGRS reference is more compact and less error-prone than latitude and longitude, and the rectangular grid makes estimating distances easy. In MilMap you enter waypoints directly in MGRS, search by an MGRS code, and the coordinate appears automatically in every PDF export.
