Activity Map Reference - Frequently Asked Questions


  When adding an Activity you can specify a Map Reference and this enables a link to a map of where the Activity will be.


Q. What Formats can an Activity Map Reference be in?
A. There are three which are Post Code, Grid Reference and Eastings and Northings.

Q. What is the Post Code format?
A. This is a simple Post Code as in "B30 3EE". Spaces can be omitted and it does not matter if the letters are in upper case or in lower case. An advantage of using Post Codes is that you can easily find them for most places. A disadvantage is that they can be a little vague and not everywhere has them. Some remote car parks for instance do not have post codes.

Q. What is the Grid Reference format?
A. This is in the form "SP04777975" where the first two letters represent a 100Km square and the remaining digits are the co-ordinates within that square. This format is sometimes known as an NGR (National Grid Reference). The number of digits define the accuracy and there must always be an even number. The first half of the digits represent the Easting or the X-axis and the second half represent the Northing or the Y-axis. The advantage of Grid References is that the place does not need to have a Post Code and you can be as accurate as you want. The disadvantage is that you need to understand a bit more to use them.

Q. What is the Eastings and Northings format?
A. This specifies the grid reference but as two numbers separated by a space as in "404770 279750". This format is only useful if you start out with Easting and Northing numbers and you don't want to convert them to a Grid Reference in the above format.

Q. How does Activity Exchange know the format?
A. If the Map Reference is a single word that starts with a valid 2 letter identifier and the rest of the Map Reference is all digits and is an even number of digits then Activity Exchange assumes it is a Grid Ref. If the Map Reference consists of two words both of which are all digits then Activity Exchange assumes it is an Easting/Northing. Anything else is treated as a Post Code.
