Coming Soon NZ Geodesy for iPhone


NZ Geodesy turns your iPhone into a true NZ customized handheld GPS!!!

New Zealand map systems are quite different than the other countries systems. The iPhone GPS returns WGS84 standard coordinates which are meaningless  on New Zealand map grid unless they are converted into a proper format.

NZ Geodesy converts GPS information on the fly. This is very handy when you are tramping or traveling in rural area where mobile internet connection is not available.

NZGD1949 and NZGD2000 datum work within New Zealand only. However anyone in the world could use WGS84 and UTM projection.

  • supports NZGD 1949 datum and New Zealand Map Grid which is old but still widely used
  • supports NZGD2000 datum and New Zealand Transverse Mercator projection which is new and official
  • supports WGS84 and UTM projection for international use
  • supports heading and speed
