VolksNav to and within Cheops pyramid
Click or doubleClick a point on map to know the logical or indoor urban address of that point
Urban codes consist of hours, minutes and radius and look like this one:
Cheops pyramid | StatusQuo Cairo | m7:50 r120 |
The convention for such codes is as follows:
StatusQuo Cairo | prefix of an urban position code | The urban pole is the Tahrir square |
m12 | basic horizon hour | from urban pole to north, m3 to east etc. |
number after the " : " | horizon minutes | distance to the horizon hour, in steps of 100 meters The blue lines on grid show :50 minutes |
r... | radius |
distance to the urban pole, in steps of 100m. The red circle shows r100 = 10km. |
The division of the horizon into 12 directions can also be used global or indoor, example Cheops pyramid, visible on above map on a higher zoom level:
. 1 unity = 1meter

This invention allows to form codes for stations and stop points, and also line logos, see example Cairo Metro:
Cairo Metro - logo proposal
The interactive map converts lat/lon to StatusQuo by click on a simplified mode, tolerable for radius < 10 km. For a professional conversion, see VolksNav.com/mapplet
