The Coordinates tool is new to PMS and is now an easy way to find exact coordinates. You can use your cursor to hover over the map and it will give you the coordinates


GPS : Global Positioning System in PMS will give you an exact longitude and latitude.

ITM : Irish Transverse Mercator is the geographic coordinate system for Ireland. It was implemented jointly by the Ordnance Survey Ireland (OSi) and the Ordnance Survey of Northern Ireland (OSNI) in 2001. The name is derived from the Transverse Mercator projection it uses and the fact that it is optimised for the island of Ireland.
