Survey grid layout is a preliminary task of geophysical and geochemical exploration. The widespread use of handheld GPS has greatly facilitated navigation and positioning in small-to medium-scale geophysical and geochemical field surveys. This study, based on coordinate transformation theory, presented a method for generating large numbers of GPS waypoints for both regular and irregular survey grids for geophysical and geochemical exploration. Furthermore, an associated software program was developed. The software enjoys simple interfaces and convenient operations, enabling the quick generation of survey grids suitable for applications such as gravity, magnetic, and resistivity surveys, soil surveys, and stream sediment surveys. Therefore, this software can be used for field navigation.
