Hi, seems really good what you have a created, however…. in my maps i have already pinpointed certain locations, is it possible to get a grid ref off my pre defined points without having to hunt for the spot again?

Thanks

Piers

That’s great! Though a shame the reverse decoder won’t give the postcode (for UK addresses)

Is there a way of putting a UK OS Grid Ref into Google?

> give me a postcode from a point on a Google Map as simply?
Since Google has just released a reverse geocoder for the API, a nice demo here:

surprised no mapplet to do the same! (I guess that is the prompt to make it…)

Just enter a postcode into the search box, if it doesnt like it just add ‘, uk’ to the end

Brilliant!

Now how about a Maplet that will give me a postcode from a point on a Google Map as simply? I know about your converter on Nearby.org

Or a way of putting a postcode into Google Maps?
