[Resolved] GC751HV - Sydney suburb checker

Greetings,

For a challenge we would like to have a checker which confirms that all Local Government Areas (LGA) in the Greater Sydney area has been done.

The data from the checker can be obtained from "GC3CA9M - NSW State Challenge (Australia) ", where all regions in NSW are specified. The values interesting for this are the OS and IS, Outer Sydney and Inner Sydney.

"Sutherland Shire (A)(1)": "OS",
"Sydney (C)(1)": "IS",

And then you end up with the following keys:

"Ashfield (A)(1)" "Auburn (C)(1)"
"Bankstown (C)(1)" "Blacktown (C)(1)"
"Botany Bay (C)(1)" "Burwood (A)(1)"
"Camden (A)(1)" "Campbelltown (C)(1)"
"Canada Bay (A)(1)" "Canterbury (C)(1)"
"Fairfield (C)(1)" "Holroyd (C)(1)"
"Hornsby (A)(1)" "Hunters Hill (A)(1)"
"Hurstville (C)(1)" "Kogarah (C)(1)"
"Ku-ring-gai (A)(1)" "Lane Cove (A)(1)"
"Leichhardt (A)(1)" "Liverpool (C)(1)"
"Manly (A)(1)" "Marrickville (A)(1)"
"Mosman (A)(1)" "North Sydney (A)(1)"
"Parramatta (C)(1)" "Penrith (C)(1)"
"Pittwater (A)(1)" "Randwick (C)(1)"
"Rockdale (C)(1)" "Ryde (C)(1)"
"Strathfield (A)(1)" "Sutherland Shire (A)(1)"
"Sydney (C)(1)" "The Hills Shire (A)(1)"
"Warringah (A)(1)" "Waverley (A)(1)"
"Willoughby (C)(1)" "Woollahra (A)(1)"

Can you please make a checker like this so that we can have a challenge cache for all LGAs in the Greater Sydney area?

Here is the link to the checker http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC751HV/26289


Please confirm that this is the checker you require

Excellent, my thanks!

Hi vogelbird,

Looks like the checker has expired. Just wondering if this could be reinstated as I'm about to place the final cache to go with this challenge. I've qualified for this challenge myself (by testing against the checker!).

Thanks.

Can you supply a new GCcode because the current GCcode is a multi and the challenge system only accepts "Unknown Cache" type with the word Challenge in the title.

The new code is GC7FDGY but I can only select Mystery for the type, Unknown isn't an option.

Here is the link to the checker https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC7FDGY/26289

The mystery type is correct

Thanks heaps, will get the cache into action shortly.

You might wait a week before submitting the cache because next week we are rebuilding the map of New South Wales and I will need to change the config of the checker

Certainly (I'm not ready to publish just yet anyway). Glad we're getting NSW tidied up :)

You might have read in the Q&A thet I can not update the checker

After more investigation it turns out that PGC can not using the OSM boundary data adm level 6 for NSW because this data is not available for the whole country. Instead PGC has used county data for Australia is from here: [url]http://www.abs.gov.au/AUSSTATS/abs@.nsf/DetailsPage/1259.0.30.001July%202011?OpenDocument[/url]
There are currently no further updates available yet

Checker is adjusted to the new county situation.
Can you check if the number of counties is correct

Yes, seems to be looking good! Thanks so much for pursuing this. There may still be changes in the future (there is still legal action pending on some amalgamations), but for now it's great. Thanks once again.
