The Dow Jones Industrial Average is a well known indicator of the overall health of the economy calculated using the current value of a variety of stocks along with a periodically adjusted divisor. The opening value of the Dow Jones Industrial Average is used as an entropy source in the Geohashing algorithm.

If you're programming a geohashing calculator, mapping service or other implementation, you'll need a source for the current and historic DJIA value. This page lists known sources and ways to access them and access restrictions.

In areas without (instant) internet access, you need to know the current DJIA to calculate today's coordinates manually. That probably means by using a cellphone or notebook with an offline calculator.

Europe

Channel N24s teletextpage 301 shows the DJIA opening value:
