GCM is a freeware great circle map plotting software for windows, you can choose colours, scale, meridians, fields and or squares from the maidenhead locator system.

Interactive great circles and QRA Locator map

GRIDX, a BASIC program that calculates grid squares and Great Circle headings and grid.exe, a grid locator calculator

A javascript online calculator of bearing and distances by G4VWL

This program allows both great-circle (polar) and rectangular projections of the world. The great-circle map is centered on any specified latitude and longitude (the "home" location). The rectangular projection is shown with the home longitude in the middle of the screen.

Great Circle Map for Linux, available for Debian, freeware by SM3GSJ

GCARA is a general interest amateur radio club intended to promote amateur radio, electronics education and fellowship through amateur radio in the Greater Cincinnati Tristate - Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky area. The club service area lies within a circle having a radius of 25 miles from downtown Cincinnati.

DX Maps provides a specialized map printing service, focusing on amateur radio applications such as world prefix maps and custom great circle projections. The platform allows radio operators to visualize propagation paths and DX entities relevant to their QTH and operational goals. This service supports the creation of high-quality, large-format maps tailored for shack display or operational planning. The service facilitates the generation of personalized maps, which can include specific callsign locations, beam headings, and other critical amateur radio data points. Users can specify parameters to create maps that aid in understanding global propagation conditions and optimizing antenna aiming for long-distance contacts. The UK-based operation ensures a localized service for European hams, with international shipping options available. DX Maps also offers QSL card printing, complementing its mapping services.

Grid Calculator allows you to calculate either a grid square locator or the latitude and longitude of a location. Grid Calculator can be used to calculate a Great Circle bearing and distance between two stations in statute miles, nautical miles, and kilometers.

Calculate distance, bearing and more between Latitude/Longitude points. This page presents a variety of calculations for lati­tude/longi­tude points, with the formulas and code fragments for implementing them.

The page automatically generate a Great Circle Map (GCM) for ham radio operators based on the IP address or by a given QTH locator. The GCM generated, unlike traditional maps of this type, has been rendered in an elliptical shape instead of a circle. This provides an expanded view horizontally thus making it easier to interpret. The map base is colored with each continent colored differently for easier recognition. The color code of the continents is given below the map for easy reference

The HF Beacon Tracker is an advanced interactive tool designed for DXers and ham radio opoerators in general to monitor active beacons operating below 14 MHz. Built upon a high-fidelity 3D Earth globe, the application provides a spatial perspective on signal paths by integrating real-time environmental data with a comprehensive beacon database curated by Mirek OK1DUB. Beacons are plotted using precise Maidenhead locators and feature a real-time day/night terminator overlay to help operators identify Gray Line propagation opportunities. With a single click, users can calculate the exact distance from their own QTH to any beacon, visualized via an animated Great-Circle Path arc on the globe surface. To enhance its diagnostic capabilities, the tool seamlessly integrates with PSK Reporter, allowing users to right-click CW beacons to instantly fetch current reception reports and signal strength data. The interface is fully optimized with a mobile-responsive design, smooth globe rotation, and togglable Dark/Light themes suitable for any shack environment. Whether you are performing antenna gain tests, conducting ionospheric research, or simply hunting for band openings, the HF Beacon Tracker transforms raw database information into an intuitive, visual diagnostic suite. It serves as an essential asset for any operator looking to master HF band conditions.

This page by Basu (VU2NSB) presents automatically rendered antenna bearings with geodesic paths projected on a rectangular map. ch geodesic great circle path displayed on the map originates from your location that is derived from your Internet IP address. Therefore the Antenna Bearing Geodesic Map generated below should be accurate and relevant to your physical location (QTH). This map is an alternative to the Great circle Map.
