Added localisation support for decimal places.
Local Scale Factor calculates the local scale factor and Cartesian coordinates from WGS84 GPS positions. It also converts between local postcodes and geodetic positions, and offers map navigation.
The tool includes hundreds of local grid transformations, utilizing local ellipsoid parameters and Helmert 7 step transformations for accurate conversions.
Based on the provided data, Local Scale Factor is available on iPhone, iPad, and iPod. Compatibility with Android devices is not specified.
The app was last updated on June 12, 2019, with version 1.9. The release date was July 23, 2018, indicating a development history.
Local Scale Factor has an age rating of 4+, making it suitable for a wide range of users.
No, Local Scale Factor does not contain advertisements. The app is free to use without any ad interruptions.
The description does not explicitly state offline capabilities. However, core calculation features may function without an internet connection, while map navigation would likely require it.
