Hi, my name is Rich and I live in the North Jersey graticule and most recently worked as a project manager for Hewlett-Packard. I recently stumbled across xkcd, which led inevitably to geohashing.
Monty Hall's Law: "Always switch doors."
Expeditions
2011-10-10 40 -74: Far Hills fiasco...
2011-10-12 40 -74: Springfield, NJ
2011-10-16 40 -74: Edison, NJ
Achievements I'm shooting for
And whatever else I come across. So many categories, so little time.
Grabbed User:Wenslayer/KMLGenerator script to attempt generation of a Google Earth location history file for the North Jersey graticule.
Installed Active Perl on my Win 7 64-bit box.
Downloaded the current W30 history file allcoords.csv. The perl script took less that 1 sec. to create all geohashes from 1928 to date!
Did same for the New York City graticule looking for my Origin geohash. It's in the Atlantic ocean - will find alternate.
Spindizzy earned the No trespassing consolation prize
|
Spindizzy earned the Land geohash achievement

Spindizzy earned the No Batteries Geohash Achievement
