The Grid

An exact square
with a simple name.

GridMap divides the world into a massive, invisible grid of exactly 10-meter squares. Four everyday words are all it takes to identify any location, giving every place on Earth a short, human-friendly address.

Whether you're trying to find your tent at a busy festival, directing a taxi to a specific building entrance, or sharing a scenic viewpoint with friends, a four-word address is much easier to communicate than latitude and longitude.

01 / HUMAN

Forget Coordinates

You don't need to understand mapping formulas or dictate long GPS strings over the phone. Just read four words to pinpoint any location globally.

02 / CLARITY

No confusing words

GridMap uses a carefully curated English vocabulary. Words that sound alike, are difficult to spell, or could cause misunderstandings have been entirely removed.

03 / OPEN

Free & Open Source

Built as an open alternative to proprietary location systems. Personal and everyday usage is entirely free without any licensing paywalls.

Precision Levels

Choose your exactness.

The GridMap engine automatically scales based on how many words you use. Keep it simple for everyday meetings, or add one extra word for robotic precision.
