It also contains a part of the Spreewald and some nice lakes, and a lot of arable land, particularly in Brandenburg.

Visiting Geohashers

Mampfred has been in the area and was going for 2012-08-11 52 13. - Mampfred 11:55, 10 August 2012 (EDT)

Probabilities

According to Land usage, the chance for your hash to fall into one of the following areas is:

37.03%	Forests
29.14%	Fields
11.23%	Natural reserves
9.19%	Roads
6.84%	Settlements
3.84%	Highways
2.12%	Water
0.62%	Industrial

According to Public transport probability, using OpenStreetMap data, there is a 27.58% chance of the hash landing within 2km of a train station, or 47.45% chance of it landing within 2km of a train or bus stop.

Increasing the search to a 5km radius, there's a 68.63% chance of it landing within 5km of a train station, or 81.61% chance of it landing within 5km of a train or bus stop.

Basically, this means that when being out there, you should go and map those thousands of missing bus stops.
