Revision as of 17:23, 13 September 2009
| Sun 13 Sep 2009 in 50,-1: 50.8275947, -1.0597134 geohashing.info google osm bing/os kml crox |
Location
Very close to Hilsea train station in Portsmouth. Looks like a field of a recreation centre.
This is an easily accessible geohash in a public place, ideal for a first-time geohash! (hint, hint!)
It's not immediately obvious, but after studying the satellite view for a while, i have determined that this is probably the easiest route to take from the train station to the geohash.
Thank you to gmap-pedometer.
Participants
- Sermoa - confirmed
- Macronencer - confirmed
- 04housemat - possible, im not sure when Mahahahaneapneap gets back from his travels
- Maoi-taoi - confirmed
Plans
Sermoa will take the train and be at the geohash for 4pm, with my google pin in the ground and wearing an xkcd tshirt. I'll bring food, drink, playing cards, juggling balls, astrojax (if i can find them!), ukelele and xaphoon. I will tweet my progress by text on the hashtag #geohashingN50W1 and i encourage others to do the same. I've never stopped in Hilsea before so i'm quite looking forward to having a little look around either before or after the geohash.
Can anyone think of a good way to leave a non-permanent marker of the event? carefully arranged sticks might work ...
- Could we borrow one of those things that paints the white lines? It would be like that bit in the Vision On titles... oops, showing my age :| Seriously, sticks would work, but you might want to gather them beforehand. I can't really think of anything else that would stay in place without damaging anything (except very small stones). --macronencer 23:03, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
Macronencer I'll be arriving between 3pm and 4pm by train. I'm bringing supplies to try an idea for an unusual marker - let's hope the ground is soft!
Maoi-taoi I live in Southsea so i'm going to leave at about 3pm and walk up there. Not sure how long it will take but i'm aiming to get there about 4pm. This is my first geohash (i wanted to do it a couple of months ago but it was an unlucky day and i didn't feel like swimming the channel), i'm looking forward to it =P
