Today's Location
About
This graticule contains Stuttgart with most of its densely populated surroundings, as well as some - in southern german terms - rather remote rural areas. Among the other towns the most important are Ulm, Tübingen and Reutlingen. The graticule is located almost entirely in the german federal state of Baden-Württemberg, except for a 6.2 km2 piece (=0.075% of the graticule) of Bayern (Bavaria).
Geographically, about one half of the graticule are formed of the Schwäbische Alb, an elevated hill area with a distinctive steep slope at the northwest side towards the Neckar valley, while gently falling towards the Donau to the southeast. Elevation ranges from around 182 m above sea level in the Neckar valley near Pleidelsheim to 969 m on a peak at Albstadt.
With it's small structured changing landscape, hundreds of small towns and rural villages, and half-forgotten leftovers from thousands of years of civilization, geohashing in this graticule promises to rarely get really boring, as there might be something to discover behind every corner. Make sure your stay isn't only to make a proof photo.
According to Land usage, the chance for your hash to fall into one of the following areas is as follows. Reality is something entirely different, though.
47.46% Fields
30.16% Forests
13.09% Natural reserves
4.09% Settlements
2.89% Roads
2.27% Highways
0.04% Water
