- edent 8y agoNumbers are not universal. In that 8 can be represented as Ⅷ, ב, ၇, 八 etc. But I like your idea of a mapping system based on emoji :-)
- wingerlang 8y agoExcept not all devices show emojis, and the discrepancy between symbols across operating systems. Not to mention, how do you even explain (say) some of them?
- mstef 8y agoit has been done ages ago, is called the maidenhead locator system, it is better in many ways, for example you can choose the granularity of the grid providing some privacy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maidenhead_Locator_System https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maidenhead_Locator_System
