GridLog: MGRS SAR Handover in the field

Scroll through real GridLog screens — large MGRS readout, quick logging, evidence cards, and mission handover exports designed for shift changes.

Why teams choose GridLog: MGRS SAR Handover

GridLog: MGRS SAR Handover focuses on what matters on scene — readable grids, defensible evidence, and packages the incoming crew can open without guesswork.

Field HUD built for MGRS SAR handover

Read segmented MGRS and UTM coordinates in large monospaced type, monitor GPS accuracy, altitude, and heading, and use NATO radio readback so coordinates go over the radio cleanly. GridLog blocks misleading fixes when accuracy is poor — because a bad grid in a SAR handover can send the next team the wrong way.

Evidence at the point for GridLog missions

Each waypoint in GridLog: MGRS SAR Handover captures position, UTC and local time, accuracy, altitude, heading, classification, and status. Pro adds watermarked photos, short radio notes, custom labels, and SHA-256 photo integrity checks — so your SAR handover record stands up when questions come later.

How GridLog: MGRS SAR Handover fits your shift

A practical GridLog workflow from first fix to handover package — built for crews who cannot afford transcription errors.

01

Start GridLog: MGRS SAR Handover on scene. Read the segmented MGRS string, check GPS accuracy and fix age, and use NATO readback before radioing coordinates to base or the next team.

  • Wait for a fresh fix under ±15 m when possible
  • Confirm stale or coarse fixes before logging

03

Debrief and hand over the mission package

When the shift ends, open Debrief in GridLog: MGRS SAR Handover, review the map and timeline, then export PDF, CSV, GIS files, or a full evidence ZIP. Share only through channels your agency approves.

GridLog: MGRS SAR Handover — frequently asked questions

Clear answers for SAR volunteers, team leaders, and outdoor professionals evaluating GridLog for field logging and handover.

What is GridLog: MGRS SAR Handover?

GridLog: MGRS SAR Handover is an iPhone app for search-and-rescue teams and field leaders. It helps you read and log MGRS/UTM coordinates, capture evidence at waypoints, and export mission packages for the next crew — all stored locally on your device.

Does GridLog work offline?

Yes. GridLog: MGRS SAR Handover is local-first. Logging, debrief, and archive search work without a network connection. Exports are generated on your iPhone and shared only when you choose. Maps use Apple MapKit and require connectivity for tiles.

What is included in the free version?

The free version of GridLog includes one reusable training mission with up to five text waypoints so you can practice MGRS readout and basic logging before upgrading.

How does GridLog Pro pricing work?

GridLog Pro is a one-time, non-consumable Lifetime purchase through the App Store (currently US$24.99). It unlocks unlimited missions and waypoints, photo and radio evidence, branded exports, GIS files, mission ZIP packages, operator presets, and low-light HUD modes. No subscription.

Where is my mission data stored?

Mission data stays on your iPhone in local SwiftData storage. GridLog does not require an account or operate a mission cloud backend. Delete missions in the app or remove the app to erase local data.

Which export formats does GridLog support?

GridLog Pro exports branded PDF and CSV mission reports, GPX, KML, and GeoJSON for GIS tools, plus evidence-inclusive mission ZIP archives with manifests. You can also export your full multi-mission archive.
