This graticule contains the city center and densest population areas of Brisbane. However the graticule is also approximately 75% ocean, and 5% islands that are not easily accessible (especially on short notice). This leaves the graticule with only 20% viable area on short notice.

Brisbane Area

Brisbane (the city) is split into two graticules by a longitude line just west of the city centre.

This eastern graticule at -27,153 is called Brisbane. The western graticule is inland at -27,152 and called Ipswich.

The Social?

Geohashing has a social aspect outside JUST the hashpoint meetups.

For example...

• If Saturday night is games night, what games do we all play?
  • Table top or otherwise.

Cranium or Articulate, says I! (Joel) Or Werewolf/Mafia?! I'd be up for a meetup as soon as it's meetupable!

We could invent our own games even! (not without precedent: Geohash Card Game)
