## What is Oceanodesy?

Oceanodesy projects and inverses between geodetic coordinates (latitude and longitude) and grid coordinates (easting and northing).  Latitude and longitude coordinates are accepted and displayed in Decimal Degrees (DD.dd), Decimal Minutes (DD MM.mm), and Decimal Seconds (DD MM SS.ss).  Grid coordinates are accepted and displayed in US Feet, International Feet, and Meters.

Projected coordinates can be stored for later reference or export.

Available Datums:
   - World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS84)
   - North American Datum 1927 (NAD27)

Available Projections:
    - Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM)
    - State Plane Coordinate System 1927 (SPCS27)
    - State Plane Coordinate System 1983 (SPCS83)

## Key features

- Geodetic to grid coordinate conversion
- Grid to geodetic coordinate conversion
- Multiple latitude/longitude formats (DD, DMM, DMS)
- Multiple grid coordinate units (US Feet, Intl Feet, Meters)
- Support for multiple datums (WGS84, NAD27, NAD83, etc.)

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.0.1 — 2017-01-07

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.

- Fixed an issue that occurred while error reporting an invalid coordinate conversion
- Changed the modified text color to make it easier to read outside

### 2.0.0 — 2016-12-13

We've spent a good deal of time redesigning the app, adding requested features, and adding a few of our own.  On top of that, we have a new parent company: Oceaneering International, Inc.  Because of this, we've changed some colors and created a new logo.  We also thought a new name was appropriate.

The first major change is that we are now supported on iOS10.  

While fixing that, we added a few user-requested datums and projections, including:
   - Indian 1975 Datum
   - Hartebeesthoek 1994 Datum / LO27 Zone
   - European Datum 1950
   - Kentucky Single Zone (1600) for SPCS83

We have also added the ability to save any converted coordinates in a list for future reference.  The list is visible from the map and can be exported via email.

### 1.1.0 — 2013-12-01

* Your converted coordinates can now be displayed on the map

* You can now drop a pin on the map and get the coordinates

* Need to find the closest C & C office?  Simply press the C & C logo on the map and we'll take you there

* Fixes the UI for 4" Retina iPhones

### 1.0.4 — 2013-11-19

Fixed a bug in iOS7 when changing geodetics

### 1.0.3 — 2012-06-13

- Fixed a bug that would not accept input in feet
- Fixed a bug that wouldn't allow the user to clear the X or Y coordinates
