''This is a new section designed to collect planned expeditions in one place. It will soon be automated, placing all pages that are in [[:Category:Expedition planning]] for each date under the appropriate subheading, but for now it is manual. For discussion on the automation effort, please see the [[User talk:AperfectBot|the bot talk page]].  To see what the bot is currently producing, [[User:AperfectBot/Test_Page|go here]]''

{{Recent expeditions}}
  
Add a new subheading if you are '''planning''' a more recent expedition, and move the subheadings for dates that have passed in their respective timezones to the Recent Meetups section. Each entry should be a link to a <nowiki>[[YYYY-MM-DD LAT LONG]]</nowiki> page giving more details of the planning, even if the plan is simply "[[User:thepiguy|thepiguy]] will attend." Please don't use this page for simply cataloguing geohash locations: posting here is interpreted as an intention to geohash there on that date.

Events not coinciding with official geohash locations are listed as [[Unofficial Invitations]].
If you are looking for an expedition, be very aware that '''this is not a complete list'''. Information on why, and more help finding expeditions is available at [[How to arrange meetups]].

news archiveEdit What's new on the wiki?

  • There's a stripped-down expedition template for frequent expeditioners: Use {{subst:Expedition2}}

  • We have now reached 15000 expeditions!
  • The PHP version underlying the wiki engine software has been updated. Let DanQ know if you spot any new (or old) bugs.
  • Happy first anniversary of the wiki's revival, if you count the 'birthday' as the date of the first user account creation plus the announcement on IRC!
  • The subdivision geohash is an achievement now.
  • SIGSTKFLT is doing a slow rollout of Ribbon2. Add a comment if you see any problems.
  • It's now possible to upload and embed GPX tracklogs of your expeditions.

More pages needing discussionDiscussion archiveEdit Now discussing - please join in:

  • A proposal to identify users who are willing to be advocates/mentors for geohashing.
  • Join our discussions:

Upcoming Meetups

You too can have this much fun.

xkcd local meetups take place every Saturday at 4:00pm (local time) in your local graticule, when the location is accessible. Many graticules attempt a meeting any day of the week that the coordinates can be reached.

Today's Coordinates

West of -30°: .3258993, .5801834
East of -30°: .6415694, .2576104
Globalhash: 25.482483812601,-87.260261166551

Please check your local graticule page for more details about meetup organisation, fellow geohashers, etc. See Help:Contents for information on how to use these coordinates to find the meetup location.

Saturday Coordinates

The coordinates for the Saturday meetups on 30 March 2024 are now available. The coordinates for the next Saturday meetups, scheduled for 6 April 2024, will be based on the Dow’s opening price published at 09:30 EDT (13:30 UTC) on Friday 5 April. See timeanddate.com to convert this time to your local time zone.‎
