Lab 1: Where Am I?
One of the lesser known landmarks in Greenwich, London, England is the something very obscure. For this lab you will need to:
- Some distance from some point you'll find something obscure.
- Some distance from the obscure thing you'll find me, I'll have tools, answers to questions, clarifications about the assignment, etc.
- Determine the latitude at something obscure using at least three different tools/methods.
- Determine the longitude at something obscure using at least three different tools/methods.
- Determine the elevation at something obscure using at least three different tools/methods.
- Determine the minimum distance in meters from something obscure to the Prime Meridian using at least two different tools/methods.
- Well reasoned and accurate estimate.
- Measuring by angle of elevation and distance.
- Measuring by calibrated human pace.
- GPS device (I have one to loan for 1 hour time blocks on Saturday)
- Google Earth
- Dan - musical, singer, commercial, wrote the words "the next world will be one" imagine there's no red hat, it's easy if you try. The standard is Novell SUSE, imagine there's no competition, imagine all novell sales going to Cancun. Spoof. They see John and Yoko walking, but these two guys voices. 3 minutes of video, 1/2 way through they get to the door. Music video spoof. Using some facility nearby to Starbucks. Must be a commercial, low budget?
- The Russians are here! Neighborhood changed dramatically last weekend when the long running play Deathtrap closed at the Noel Coward and the Russians came to town. Candles burning in St Mart Court after bombing at airport in moscow, languages spoken on the street, trucks with staging materials from latvia, two red bars.
