D

Local email tool in D, for Linux

This implementation IS FULLY 30W-compliant.

Run this program once a day (for instance, per crontab) to get email notification whenever Google Maps indicates the daily target is nearer than a specified range. The first time around, run it from the commandline to configure. Configuration is stored in ~/.geohash/geohash.cfg. Use --help for info about commandline parameters. Source. Linux 32-bit upx compressed binary.

Javascript

Semi-manual offline calculator

This implementation IS FULLY 30W-compliant.

If you're going to be away from internet access, you'll need to compute the hash locally:

• Download and extract this: http://lab.brainonfire.net/drop/geohash-offline.zip
• Working example: http://lab.brainonfire.net/geohash-offline/calc.html

Notes

• All you need is a Javascript-enabled browser. Tested in Firefox so far.
• You will have to somehow acquire the Dow's opening value for the appropriate date; there may be a service to do this.
  • Remember, if you're east of 30W, you should use the previous day's opening price, even if a new one becomes available later in the day.
• The date is filled in automatically using the current timestamp.
• You'll have to combine the computed fractional coordinates with your graticule coordinates yourself.
• I grabbed MD5 and base conversion code from random internet sites.

PERL

Geo::Hashing on CPAN

This implementation IS FULLY 30W-compliant.

Reusable code library that can be used from any perl program:

Geo::Hashing Sample code

Python

Code snippets

This implementation IS FULLY 30W-compliant.

Various code snippets can be found at Implementations/Libraries/Python.

Python package xkcd.geohash

This implementation IS NOT 30W-compliant.

There is Python package xkcd.geohash which is independent of the interactive coordinate calculator (but uses Google Finance as well).

Python 3 standard library

In Python 3.1 and above, an implementation of the geohashing algorithm is included in the antigravity module. Unfortunately importing the module will open a web browser.

>>>import antigravity
(opens the xkcd comic)
>>>antigravity.geohash(34,-118,b'2012-04-09-13057.57')
34.386614 -118.231675

RESTful implementation with Atom feed

This implementation IS FULLY 30W-compliant.

The source for the Atom feed is available through anonymous svn here: https://staticfree.info/svn/ghfeed/

This implementation uses web.py to give simple, clean URLs. To contribute to it, please contact xxv and he can set you up with commit access.
