Options

Every preference map.army exposes lives here. Pick your unit system (metric or imperial), choose how coordinates are displayed (MGRS, UTM, lat/long, and more), set your favourite base map as the default, and tune small tool defaults like grid spacing and snap behaviour. Configure it once, and the app remembers it for next time.
