The convention for urban position codes is:
StatusQuo(c) Glasgow | prefix of a position code | The urban pole is the George square |
m12 | basic horizon hour | from urban pole to north, m3 to east etc. |
number after the " : " | horizon minutes | distance to the horizon hour, in steps of 100 meters The blue lines on grid show :50 minutes |
r... | radius |
distance to the urban pole, in steps of 100m. The red circle shows r100 = 10km. |
The division of the horizon into 12 directions can also be used global or indoor, for example the Glasgow university campus.
This method is proper for the addressing of buildings. The modern room numbering can base on this or form own clock systems.
This map converts lat/lon to StatusQuo(c) on a simplified mode, tolerable for radius < 10 km. For a professional conversion, see VolksNav.com/mapplet
