Lol-asg.png 26 / m / 48,9

My home coordinates are plusminus 48.53,9.06 in the city of Tuebingen, Germany. I was born and lived for a long time in 49,11 and still am there from time to time.

I plan to geohash mostly by bicycle, but will make short detours (less than 5km one way), if a geohash is near to a route I'm driving by car anyway.

Geohashes

Finally I started with geohashing after years of just watching and checking the coordinates like once every few months :)

date weekday description
01 2015-05-17 48 8 Sunday on a field in Neustetten, Rottenburg
02 2015-06-12 48 9 Friday very near to the area of the golf club "Schönbuch"
03 2015-07-12 48 11 Sunday Grünwald, München
-- 2015-07-17 Friday my origin geohash, see 1988-10-04 49 11
04 2015-08-16 48 8 Sunday on a field south of Wurmlingen
05 2015-08-28 48 9 Friday northwest of Bebenhausen in Schönbuch
06 2015-09-11 48 9 Friday on the rail track between Tübingen and Reutlingen! Meetup and some other achievements :)

Klaus achieved level 0 of the Minesweeper Geohash achievement
by visiting coordinates in 48,11 and 0 of the surrounding graticules.


For an over view see the map: http://xkcd.nathanwoodruff.com/GooMapXKCDKlaus.htm or use the table below. It contains the first successful hash for each graticule. I only included graticules for the moment for which I know I'll be travelling through or staying at least for a few days per year and thus there is a small possibility to get them, if the algorithm is kind enough! Those with brackets are quite unlikely :(

(50,10) (50,11)
49,9 49,10 49,11
48,8 48,9 (48,10) 48,11

Furthermore, I'm travelling for work sometimes, so I might be able to get some other graticules mostly in Germany, too.

Bash Script

As I always forget to look up the coordinates, I hacked this (very ugly) bash script to let a daily cronjob inform me per email, whenever a geohash is near to me:

#!/bin/bash

maxdistance=15

a=$(curl 'http://tjum.anthill.de/cgi-bin/geohash.cgi?lat=48.53&lon=9.06&nr=1&map=0&size=240x240&t=&date=&unit=km' 2>/dev/null |
iconv -f 'iso8859-1' -t 'utf8' |
sed  's/<br>/\n/g' |
sed 's/ / /g' |
fgrep 'km' |
cut -d ':' -f2 |
cut -d 'k' -f1 | 
sort -n |
head -n 1 |
cut -d '.' -f 1)

echo $a

if [ $a -lt $maxdistance ]
then
	echo 'http://tjum.anthill.de/cgi-bin/geohash.cgi?t=1&nr=o&unit=km&zoom=11%2F5&zoom=8%2F2&type=roadmap&lat=48.53&lon=9.06&size=240x240' | 
	mail -s "geohash is near to tuebingen ($a)" USERNAME
fi

I just parses the small hash inquiry tool from Ekorren in the most complicated way and sends the mail via a local mailserver :)
