WatchRose(c)
Click, doubleClick or tap a point on map to know the metrical position code of that point.
The convention is:
StatusQuo(c) | prefix of a position code | The global pole can be the Umbilicus Urbis in Rome (navel of the world) |
m12 | basic horizon hour | from global pole to north, m3 to east etc. |
number after the " : " |
horizon minutes | distance to the horizon hour, in steps of 1 km The blue lines show m9:1000 and m3:1000 minutes |
r... | radius | distance to the global pole, in steps of 1 km The green lines show r5000, r10000 and r15000 |
This map converts lat/lon to WatchRose(c) on a simplified mode, tolerable for radius < 10 km. For a professioal conversion, put lat/lon in a URL like http://volksnav.de/convertUN/?lat=48.2&lon=-111.5
