Revision as of 18:28, 30 July 2022

A map I made by going to geohashing.info, taking a bunch of screenshots and stitching them all together.
It looks really low quality here but you can click on it to see the original file. I like maps, and with this one you could print it out or something
(note: i just noticed something wrong!)

i live in cambridge graticule.
no geohashes yet, but hoping to do one soon
i also like trains and fps games. the fun, fast-paced type

I'm currently off to the isle of wight for a week. The chance is probably quite slim that there'll be a geohash on the island, considering the fact that graticule is mostly water


one day i would like to get a virgin graticule. Currently, blyth looks feasible, but I don't actually have any means of getting there
