Recreating Hessophane's Geohashing Minesweeper-Regiohashing tool which has since become defunct (I think).
...that probably doesn't make much sense to anyone who doesn't know what Geohashing is.
I'm going to be making this in Javascript and... oh, did I mention that before this I'd never properly used Javascript?
I've completed:
- Painstakingly creating sprites
- Writing code to link the sprites together on a <canvas>
- Create a similar text-to-map converter to the original
- Add the numbers at the top
- Create a way to identify what square correlates to what graticule
- Do the numbers in the map
- Make the numbers at the top change based on the correct info
- Added vanity features (?blue, ?cherry, etc)
I need to:
- Tidy up (or redo) this README and the documentation at geohashing.site
- Recreating all the maps that the original had
- Giving it the capability to check a user page for an a/s/g tag and geohash links
- Overall just getting it to the standard that the original was
Eventually I might do a rewrite in Flask or something, which will include:
- Redoing the text-to-map logic to allow for sub-sub-(etc)-regions
