Re: Is it possible GC5AAQE checker for old challenge.

[Resolved] Is it possible GC5AAQE checker for old challenge.

We have three grandfathered challenges which are essentially the same but get progressivley harder. They are UK National Park Challenges Bronze, Silver and Gold.
Bronze is Https://coord.info/GC5AAQE
Silver is GC5AARR ▼
Gold is GC5AARY ▼
For Bronze the cacher must have found a minimum of five (5) caches in five (5) different National Parks and they must have three (3) different types of cache included in each of those five.
Thats 5 caches in each park X 5 parks and they must include 3 different cache types in each park
That is a total of twenty five caches (25) for this challenge.
Silver is ten Parks and Gold all 15 uK National parks.
Thank you in advance for looking.

The existing polygon checker doesn't handle the multiple finds in the same polygon (or the minimum number of types) requirements. A new script would be needed.

Additionally, you'd need to provide polygon data for each national park.

This is the best source of data I have found. OSM data

You can thank vogelbird for the polygons. I modded some existing scripts from lilifuren and we have some tags for you. They do print out more caches than are required to make sure we get the 5 per park and 3 types per park listed.

Right now I am looking for any bugs or corner cases that are just not running. This took some optimization to get working for some of the cachers who have completed these challenges.

Expect links to change in the future so I can disable some of mine to allow vogelbird to get some credit for tagging as the polygons are a fair bit of work and the system does not tag that.


Bug reports welcome
