[[Category:Meetup in {{{lat}}} {{{lon}}}| ]]

The Newark graticule is at 40 N, -74 W. This may be the most populous graticule in the United States, with a population in the neighborhood of 7 million people. It includes almost the entire northern half of New Jersey, the most densely populated state (Census), as well as Staten Island, western sections of Brooklyn and lower Manhattan in New York, and a part of Pennsylvania northeast of Philadelphia. In addition, other than Raritan Bay, there are no large sections of water.

Thanks to Meteorswarm for setting up a Facebook group for this graticule. Meet-ups can be coordinated there, although so far this wiki has been more active.

Attempted geohashes

Main page: Category:Meetup in 40 -74
  • Tuesday, June 2, 2009:
    • The geohash is only a couple of miles from Jevanyn's house, so he's going to try to bike there, if the weather cooperates.
  • Monday, May 11, 2009:
    • Jevanyn planned on a bicycle geohash 7 miles from work, but he didn't plan on getting squished by traffic on the way there.
  • Saturday, February 14, 2009
    • The geohash was in a house in Nutley. Jevanyn made a lolhouse, but no one actually went.

2008 geohashing expeditions have been archived.
