Hi Trying to enter Blackpool South on DB, my tomtom list's the lats and longs as -2.99825, 53.79031 how do you convert this to X and Y cords for DB?

I don't know how to convert the readings, but you could try looking at the same position in 'Multimap' . Under the map the position will be displayed lat/long in decimal degrees, and OS Northings/Eastings.
Hope this helps.

Olley,

I have amended your map entry for Blackpool South CC site it was just a street out Wink

A very useful FREE bit of information if you are a CC or C&CC member is at

There is No conversion factor to calculate the values from Long, Lat, to Ordenance Survey

Put the alues into your Say Nav aas Lon & Lat

It will then give you the OS Nos These reappear every 1ookm

I use the MS Autoroute & it works the same or you can put in OS a get out Long, Lat,
