26 / m / 48,9

My home coordinates are plusminus 48.53,9.06 in the city of Tuebingen, Germany.

I was born and lived for a long time in 49,11 and still am there from time to time.

Geohashes

Finally I started with geohashing after years of just watching and checking the coordinates like once every few months :)

1. 2015-05-17 48 8 on a field in Neustetten, Rottenburg
2. 2015-06-12 48 9 very near to the area of the golf club "Schönbuch"

Achievements

Easy ones

Klaus earned the Land geohash achievement

by reaching the (48, 8) geohash on 2015-05-17.

Klaus earned the Bicycle geohash achievement

by cycling 42km to and from the (48, 8) geohash on 2015-05-17.

2015-05-17 48 8 (42km)
2015-06-12 48 9 (36km)

Minesweeper

see the map: http://xkcd.nathanwoodruff.com/GooMapXKCDKlaus.htm

Klaus achieved level 1 of the Minesweeper Geohash achievement

by visiting coordinates in 48,9 and 1 of the surrounding graticules.

Klaus achieved level 1 of the Minesweeper Geohash achievement

by visiting coordinates in 48,8 and 1 of the surrounding graticules.

List with the first geohash I reached in every graticule I did a hash:

2015-05-17 48 8 #1
2015-06-12 48 9 #2

Bash Script

As I always forget to look up the coordinates, I hacked this (very ugly) bash script to let a daily cronjob inform me per email, whenever a geohash is near to me:

#!/bin/bash

maxdistance=15

a=$(curl 'http://tjum.anthill.de/cgi-bin/geohash.cgi?lat=48.53&lon=9.06&nr=1&map=0&size=240x240&t=&date=&unit=km' 2>/dev/null |
iconv -f 'iso8859-1' -t 'utf8' |
sed  's/<br>/\n/g' |
sed 's/ / /g' |
fgrep 'km' |
cut -d ':' -f2 |
cut -d 'k' -f1 | 
sort -n |
head -n 1 |
cut -d '.' -f 1)

echo $a

if [ $a -lt $maxdistance ]
then
	echo 'http://tjum.anthill.de/cgi-bin/geohash.cgi?t=1&nr=o&unit=km&zoom=11%2F5&zoom=8%2F2&type=roadmap&lat=48.53&lon=9.06&size=240x240' | 
	mail -s "geohash is near to tuebingen ($a)" USERNAME
fi

I just parses the small hash inquiry tool from Ekorren in the most complicated way and sends the mail via a local mailserver :)
