On a computer: Double click on the desired location and get the coordinates.
You should get something like this 51.506980.-0.152950

Here’s the latest version of the map I’ve been tinkering with. I tried the map as a combination of cities, towns and coordinates, using postal codes and just coordinates. Until now, coordinates alone work best. So, despite the wishes of the audience, I settled on a coordinate system. For those who have not yet heard. Here is a survey based on which a map of V1E machine operators is made.

I’m sorry you have to put a little more effort into the coordinates. But here are a few tips. An easy way to get coordinates is Google Maps.

On your phone: Press briefly on the desired spot on the map and get the coordinates.

On a computer: Double click on the desired location and get the coordinates.

longitude is teh second (right) digits -0.152950

N.B. You can use as precise/inaccurate coordinates as you want. An optional forum nickname has been added to the survey. Responding to the survey is voluntary.

I’ve spent a lot of time on this, so hopefully someone will enjoy it. Please note that a more detailed map (google my maps) is not updated automatically, and I may not have time to update the map every day.

Thank you to everyone who has completed the survey. I had to edit everything so often and so much that, unfortunately, everyone who has already answered has to fill out the survey again.

I hope your questions and comments will be posted on the previous forum.

Okay that looks good. I will put both links in the docs I think first, or maybe on the main site footer. Open to suggestions. I need a few days to get this going though.

That is pretty amazing, we have talked about this so many times and I think you have addressed all the concerns and came up with a super fun solution.

Let’s see how many it people that sheet can handle!
