What it does

Everything an instructor needs

🗺️
Define your training area
Draw a polygon on the satellite map or drop a centre point. All lanes generate inside your boundary automatically.
⚡
Auto-generate lanes instantly
Set the number of lanes, nav points, and total distance. The engine places waypoints with guaranteed spacing and shape variety.
🧭
MGRS, UTM, and Lat/Long
All coordinates shown in your preferred format. MGRS precision from 6 to 10 digit. Grid and magnetic bearings with live NOAA declination.
🛣️
Road avoidance
Fetches road geometry from OpenStreetMap and avoids placing nav points near roads, tracks, or paths — with adjustable buffer distance.
🖨️
Print-ready route cards
One-click route cards with static map, bearing table, and remarks column. Print individual lanes or the full course in one job.
📤
Export everything
CSV, GeoJSON, GPX for Garmin devices, and Grade PDF for instructor assessment. Share files via WhatsApp, Signal, or email.
