[OSGeo-Brasil] A simple circle upgrades the State of the Map

[Munich Orientation Convention]

Estimados amigos,

 

tómo a liberdade de chamar a vossa antenção para a conferencia virtual
FOSS4G Korea 2020, session 4:  <https://foss4g.osgeo.kr/track-english-01>
https://foss4g.osgeo.kr/track-english-01

Esse evento possivelmente virá a ser conhecido como o inicio da abolição de
codigos de localização enigmaticos, mapas sem grade de referencia,
sinalização sem pontos cardeais etc. A idéia surgiu vendo turistas se
orientarem em volta do Cristo.

A simple circle upgrades the State of the Map 


Henrique Koehler / Munich Orientation Convention


Nonacademic reference grids A, B, C, 1, 2, 3... are hardly zoomable, so they
got unused. Consequently, the State of the Map is a Naked Emperor: no grid
at all (!) and the answer to the question "where?" is "here!"
www.volksnav.de/YouAreHere . This unworthy situation caused the
proliferation of enigmatic location codes, some based on names (!?)
www.volksnav.de/alternatives. 

 

A simple standard circle www.volksnav.de/r100Seoul and the rebirth of the
Time/Space Convention *) will upgrade the State of the Map, create
imaginable location codes, help to avoid confusions
www.volksnav.de/confusions etc. etc.. 

FOSS4G Korea 2020 can have a relevant role on this quantum jump. 

 

*)  if I look outwards, right hand is clockwise
