Since Robyn's map of BC graticules is absurdly large for a regional geohash achievement, I thought I would define the graticules of the various Regional Districts. The more populated Regional Districts are disappointingly small in area; the GVRD (Greater Vancouver Regional District) for example spans only two graticules: Vancouver and Surrey.
I have sorted them more or less in "reading order" - top left to bottom right on a map of BC. That means the smallest and most populated regional districts are at the bottom of the page.
The table of graticules format was shamelessly stolen from Robyn's page.
I built these up by cross-referencing the minimal features on the linked Regional District maps from the BC Stats website with google maps and reading the "ll" parameter after centering the map on the point I wanted co-ordinates for. If you have better maps that show Regional District boundaries *and* co-ordinates, please feel free to correct my grids.
