Since I'm into [http://www.openstreetmap.org Openstreetmap] as well, I use Geohashing as an opportunity for "Openstreethashing" - selecting random points to go to seems like a good method for collecting tracks.

I work as a database programmer in the "IT-Speicher" in Regensburg, Germany, and toy around with unconventional r/c aircraft, aerial photography and some other odd digital photography techniques in my free time.

I do have a website but for the moment it is horribly outdated.

I'm into Openstreetmap and Geocaching also; these combine well with Geohashing expeditions.

I'll try to visit hashpoints on any day (or during the night, if necessary) if I find the time, and the coordinates happen to be reachable from Regensburg by bicycle, including the corners of the neighbor graticules:

I can be found idling around in #geohashing most of the time.

Been there...

(newest first)

  • 2008-12-30 49 12 on a wooded hill above Unterlichtenwald, about 15km east of Regensburg. Reached the coordinates together with Tomcat at 20:00.
  • 2008-12-24 49 12 inside a Fristo beverage depot in Regensburg, near the Donaueinkaufszentrum. Arrived at 9:00 and explained geohashing to the interested shop leasee.
  • 2008-12-18 48 12 In a field south of Neutraubling. Made a total mess of myself and my bike to get there (after work).
  • 2008-11-01 48 12 In a field north of Bad Abbach, about 10km from Regensburg. Went there by bike with Tomcat and Hans around 16:00, and also flew my "X-3D-BL" quadrocopter over the field.
  • 2008-10-18 49 12 On a hill above Bach an der Donau, 15km east of Regensburg. I met Tomcat and a drag-along there at 9:00 in the morning.
  • 2008-10-14 49 12 In Sulzbach an der Donau, under an apple tree, 10km east of Regensburg, with Tomcat and my R/C paraplane.
  • 2008-10-11 49 12 Near Hirschling, in a forest above the Regen valley, 25km north of Regensburg.
  • 2008-09-29 49 11 Very close to Eilsbrunn, in a field west of Regensburg, with Tomcat.
  • 2008-08-09 49 12 Near Hainsacker, in a forest north of Regensburg, with Tomcat
  • 2008-06-15 49 11 Near Siebeneichen, in a field east of Amberg (my first, and for now the longest expedition)

...done that:
