05: Say 3 words and get any location on planet earth
from Meloncast · host Harrison Malone
I discovered http://what3words.com whilst watching a random YouTube clip the other day. It was on this channel https://www.youtube.com/user/fullychargedshow if you're interested. What they do is really fascinating to me being someone who's interested in maps and tech. Essentially they've mapped the entire world into 3 by 3 metre squares and then assigned a string of 3 words to each of those squares. Test the map out here https://map.what3words.com For example, if I input fall.through.indoor I get this really specific location at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. That is excellent for finding where a mate is a stadium. In the pod I'm also thinking about how awesome this might be for events, delivery companies, uber and people organising picnics.
