How to Use the GTA 6 Pins

Explore and organize

Search by name, tag or source identifier. Use layers and filters to narrow the map, then select a place to inspect its source, coordinates and uncertainty. Save a favorite, add a note or include it in a collection.

Personal markers describe your own observations. Their positions use the same game-coordinate frame as the catalogue. They remain clearly identified as personal data.

Shared coordinates

The coordinate plane represents Leonida game units, never real-world latitude and longitude. The calibrated transform is world x = GTADB x × 2 and world z = −GTADB y × 2. The legacy SVG map uses that world z value for its vertical axis.

Missing coordinates remain missing; zero is a valid coordinate and is never a substitute for unknown placement. Real-world analogue coordinates are provenance only.

Evidence and uncertainty

CONFIRMED

Official visual identity or existence supported by Rockstar media; this does not confirm a community-mapped position.

SUPPORTED

A community identification with usable source context.

APPROXIMATE

Community-estimated position, generalized cartography or reconstructed geometry.

UNKNOWN

Unknown names, absent coverage, missing positions or source-flagged uncertainty.

Source flags such as unconfirmed, may not exist, cancelled, fictional, demolished and duplicate are retained. They are not interchangeable confidence scores.

Cartography

The basemap is the pinned Yanis v17 GTA VI Community Map from GTADB, shown as drawn: it is cropped to the map area and resampled, and its own colours, labels and annotations are left unmodified. Its place names and marks are the source's community estimates, not evidence verified by this app. Landmark proximity is never used to invent roads.

The source's legend, credits and screenshot panel are outside the crop. Unmapped margins represent absent source coverage, not evidence of sea.

Local data and backups

Favorites, notes, collections, markers and preferences are stored locally in IndexedDB. A successful save depends on browser storage being available. Clearing site data removes those local records; private browsing and storage limits can affect persistence.

Use export to save a versioned JSON backup. Import validates its contents and presents a preview before merging with existing data. A backup contains personal notes and markers, so share it deliberately.
