Mapzo’s Geodesy Toolkit

mapzo.app Observed source
Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A browser-based collection of 14 free tools for map projections, coordinate conversion, US survey grids, and geomagnetism.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-31 issue.

Field notes

The toolkit is organized around four specialist areas rather than a single general-purpose map interface. Its pages expose underlying conventions and calculations, including UTM series terms, MGRS zone and square construction, Tissot distortion overlays, and projection-specific latitude tables. Reference material extends beyond calculators: the PLSS section offers a KML layer, while the State Plane atlas provides FIPS/EPSG identifiers and a dated SPCS83-to-SPCS2022 crosswalk. The homepage states that processing occurs in the browser and nothing is stored.
