New Orleans is split among 4 graticules NW (30,-90) NE (30,-89) SW (29,-90) SE (29,-89). Because all 4 graticules contain large amounts of water (Lake Pontchartrain and the Gulf of Mexico), whenever it comes time to choose a location suitable for meeting, the closest to New Orleans that is not located in a body of water should be chosen.
