The problem of determining whether a graph $G$ can be realized as a unit-distance graph in $\mathbb{Z}^2$ is NP-complete. As far as we can tell, a proof of this result has never been written up. We prove NP-completeness of this problem by implementing Eades and Whitesides' logic engine in this setting, and construct a graph that is realizable if and only if an arbitrary NA3SAT formula is satisfiable.
