Don't take our word for it. [[GPS_Accuracy]] spells out exactly how accurate you may be. In general, your device is always a little less accurate then what it says it is. Based on the description, you absolutely got it. [[User:Splitdipless|Splitdipless]] 17:56, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

... I walked up to the gate to the back garden, at which point the GPS read 3.65m to go. I didn't want to open the gate and charge into their back garden without permission, so I didn't go any further, but I noticed when I got back to the car that the GPS accuracy was hovering around 4m. So... did I get the geohash or not?

Would welcome other geohashers' opinions on this. Thanks. — Benjw  [talk] 11:38, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

Personally I think it's first of all a matter of the geohasher himself being convinced that he reached the coordinates, but you may also want to check the comments here. --Crox 21:55, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
