The Vice-County Map Finder converts input locations to the corresponding vice-counties and displays these on a map. The input locations can be represented in a variety of formats and a note can be added to each location. The data can be saved for import into other software. The map includes overlay of the boundary of the vice-counties.
Click the die icon to generate random locations. Click the revolving arrows icon to convert locations. Click Table tab to see results in a table. Click Map tab to see results plotted on a map.

The accuracy of the location conversions matches the full precision of the source dataset when the input is an OS grid reference or easting and northing. The processing of other types of input involves a conversion to this coordinate system and can introduce an uncertainty of a few metres in addition to the precision of the input itself. The location of markers and outline of region boundaries on the map is subject to similar unpredictabilty due to conversion between coordinate systems.
