Help Please: Can't figure OS Co-ordinates
Hi all,
I must be missing something! I am new to this.
I am using maps supplied by the "EastWest Mapping " company in Wexford.
Take Djouce mountain in Wicklow.
I would say that the co-ordinates of this peak are roughly : 3179 2103
However, I have read numerous MountainViews.ie reports for several mountains and cannot reconcile my readings with what I find on the website.
So , as an example, what would the experts say the co-ordinates of Djouce are?? |
