Overview

OMN4 gives you two related ways to locate somewhere quickly:

• offline place search for names, postcodes, and other indexed places
• direct location entry using grid references, latitude/longitude, or UTM

This section explains both.

In This Section

• Search Places explains the offline place-search screen.
• Search Filters covers the result-type filters that appear after a search.
• Grid References explains British National Grid entry.
• Latitude, Longitude, and UTM covers direct coordinate entry.

Good To Know

• Place search needs downloaded place data before it can work offline.
• Grid references and coordinates are useful even when place search data is not installed.
• Search results normally take you straight to the location on the map.
