About
The Helgoland graticule is at latitude 54, longitude 7. With the only landmasses being two islands totaling about 4.2 km², the odds of a hash being in the sea are overwhelming. The graticule's area is distributed as follows:
99.98% Water 0.02% Land
Statistically, a geohash in this graticule falls on land rougly once in 14 years, meaning one land geohash from the inception of the game through 2020.
Map and stats
| Name | code | area type | Geohash probability |
|---|---|---|---|
| ■ Schleswig-Holstein | SH | land | 0.024% |
| ■ Schleswig-Holstein | SH | incl. waters | 18.1% |
| ■ Niedersachsen | NI | waters | 1.6% |
Expeditions
- 2018-11-29 54 7 - Fippe was the first to document a geohashing expedition on Helgoland.
Previous hash locations
- On 2008-05-21 (the first day of geohashing), the hash was about 1.050 meters off the western shore.
- On 2008-09-18 the geohash was about 50 meters off the eastern shore of Helgoland, between the two islands.
- Hit! On 2013-01-08 the geohash was located on the island Helgoland-Düne (Heligoland dune).
