The latest version of Mission Manager has been released, this version includes several improvements to the Maps and configurable GPS location formats. 
  • The Map Grids have been improved and will print better with the location numbers being more visable
  • In the Configuration screen there is a new setting "Mapping Coordinate Display Format" in the Team Information section.  This setting controls how MM will display GPS location on the varias mission screens, such as Clue Locations, Subject PLS, Subject Found Location, Radio Log Location, CP Location, etc.  This setting can be set to Decimal Latitude / Longitude,  Universal Transverse  Mercator (UTM), US National Grid (USNG), Degrees/Minutes/Seconds, or Degrees Decimal Minutes.
  • All of the fields listed above and including the Map "Find" field are now a single field that can automatically read and understand many different GPS location formats.  Some examples of things that can be entered are as follows:
32.830738, -116.866808
32.830738N, 116.866808W
32.830738 N -116.866808 W
UTM 485184 3618184  (Note: when entering UTM coordinates the map location should be near the area in question.  The current UTM zone of the map displayed is used to find the typed in UTM location.)
498635,3651766
498635,3651766 (Zone 11)
498635,3651766 Z11
USNG 11S MS 87491 42805
11S MS 98635 51766
33°0'15.5700",-117°0'52.6140"
33d0'15.5700",-117d0'52.6140"
33d 0' 15.5700",-117° 0' 52.6140"
33°0.2595,-117°0.8769
33D0.2595,-117D0.8769
33D0.2595 N,117D0.8769 W


Note the Mapping "Find" field not only supports all the types of entries above, but also supports entering of addresses and intersections, like the ones shown in the following examples:

123 Main Street, San Diego Ca
San Diego, Ca
Main St and Pepper Dr, San Diego Ca
Highway 8, San Diego

 :( I'm sorry ... but something is not working for me ... Grid locations are 1] not saving on the input page (they are present for a while and then disappear) and 2] not transferring to the map   format: 38.56280 N, -122.63012 W

Using Chrome -  cache cleared several times - entered for Command Post location  and then for PLS both forms performed the same - entered and stayed for a while and then disappeared  never showing on the map.

Ideas?

I think we found and fixed and issue here related to your GPS coords.  Can you refresh your page (F5) and try again.  Let us know if you still have any issues.

Thanks.
