This graticule is located at 18 N, -66 W. It includes most of the land area and population of Puerto Rico. The graticule, however, is about half water. Geohashers from Puerto Rico may wish to use a half-graticule rule, making all geohashes on or close to land.
Please avoid using alternatives to the official algorithm unless there is a compelling reason to do so in your locale.
- Alternative algorithms are appropriate for island regions or small countries without open borders. In such cases, please work towards a clear consensus with others in your graticule on the best alternative method for your region before establishing and publicising your local convention.
- By using an alternate algorithm where it is not appropriate, you effectively fragment your graticule, reducing the number of people who might come to the same meetup.
