 28 / m / 49,9AboutI live in Würzburg, Germany (near 49.8, 9.94) and work in Schweinfurt (near 50.05, 10.25). On my way to work I am able to visit hashpoints in a large area, depending on which route I use. I might also visit hashpoints near Heidelberg in my origin graticule Mannheim, Germany (49, 8). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

More AboutEarlier, when I didn't have a GPS, I relied on Google Maps, the Bavarian Land Survey Office's maps (with topographical information) and OpenStreetMap.org to find the hashpoints. This meant that whenever there was no special landmark (intersection, house...) at the hashpoint, I could only guess where the hashpoint was. If the hashpoint was e.g. in a forest 200 m from a track, I considered the coordinates reached after 200 large steps into the underbrush. Although I always try to get to the exact spot, if the hashpoint is in a field with crops or in a very dirty/wet place without any obstacle between me and the hashpoint, I am satisfied at the edge of that area.
For those of you who use Firefox: Have a look at the minimap sidebar add-on. It supports Google Maps and OpenStreetMap and it tells you the exact coordinates the cursor is on. Disclaimer and thanks: Ideas for this page were Many thanks to Hessophanes for his great Regional-Geohash-Map-Tool. Also to Ekorren for his Hash Inquiry Tool which even works via foreign mobile phone networks (so far tested for Austria and Italy). This page is maintained by myself. Automatic or manual updates will have no effect, because I'll just overwrite them with a copy on my hard drive, probably without noticing your changes. Use my talk page instead.
