Grid InQuest II launched

Grid InQuest II is out. It is the replacement for the old Windows Grid InQuest, commissioned by Land & Property Services Northern Ireland and the Ordnance Surveys of Ireland and Great Britain to go with the OSGM15 geoid and the OSTN15 / OSi/OSNI horizontal models.

The screenshot is the Linux build on the day of release: ETRS89 geodetic in, British National Grid (TN15/GM15) out, with the map parked on the Irish Sea. The same source produces Windows and macOS desktops, and a Raspberry Pi trial build, all through Free Pascal and Lazarus.

Source and binaries are on Bitbucket. Ordnance Survey also hosts the official downloads. There is a longer write-up on the project page.
