[OSGeo-Standards] Location codes - best standard3all

[Munich Orientation Convention]

Hi Jonathan,

 

my system isn't easy to understand if you try to understand all 25 benefits
at once. 

Let's describe only the location code benefit: the codes consist on hours,
minutes and radius, nothing else. It was made for children, so please try to
think like a child.

 

Instead of molesting your customers with an address like:      

 

Howbery Park, Wallingford Oxfordshire, OX10 8BA,

 

you could indicate this:   <http://www.volksnav.de/HRwallingford>
www.volksnav.de/HRwallingford

 

193 blocks of houses from Oxford Carfax tower in direction m4, 

respectively 93 blocks later than m4.

 

The width of a sector is radius/2 (!), so you're close to the sector m5.

 

Besides: VolksNav is something like the military ro-theta navigation.

 

Henrique
