Great innit! I have actually found the satellite button more useful than I could have imagined, really cool if you can't be bothered to get and scratch your head about GPS coordinates and how many squares up or down Dalpok is and you just want to see yourself on a map and know you need to head north east a load before checking your position again. I should probably add a "way point" feature so you can set a GPS coord and it shows it on the map along with your own position! --[[User:Murk|Murk]] 18:39, 29 March 2006 (BST)

The Shartak UBER MAP project

I have created an online and highly detailed map which all Shartak users can contribute to... To see the map so far, and join the project, go to the Shartak UBER MAP project website and check it out.

Discussing data with Dr.J

[edit, cut] I collect the name as you do, the density and the icons (meaning huts and trees I guess, the "class" data from the table TD tags). I also record the time the square was submitted. Do you want to send me your X,Y,Name,Density,Icons data with time stamps for when it was recorded then, and i'll merge with my data and send you back the super set? How does that sound? --Murk 21:39, 12 March 2006 (GMT)

[edit, cut] I've not got time stamps, but that shouldn't be a problem. What format do you want it all in? I could give you access to my database for a bit if that would be easier. --Dr. J 23:26, 12 March 2006 (GMT)

[edit, cut] I'll leave your time stamps as null, or perhaps set them to me 2 weeks ago so the data is distinguishable. As for format, hm, probably doesn't matter as long as I can parse it, but, how about a CSV or something? If so, "X","Y","Description","icons" would be ideal... how's that? --Murk 23:50, 12 March 2006 (GMT)

CSV should be fine. It might have to wait for a while as, with typical good timing, I need a new hard drive as the current one seems to be dying. A map purely by square type would be easy. -- Dr. J 09:31, 13 March 2006 (GMT)
