The All Around Cacher


pgc-badge.php?icon=TheAllAroundCacher&quality=D&.png Find geocaches in all 360 degrees around your home location. With math we are calculating the angle between your home location and your finds, and round that number down to closest integer. This will create 360 sectors. Your mission is to find a geocache in each and one of these sectors, when you do, you get the Diamond. The plotted coordinates of geocaches is what counts, not the final location when that differs. If a geocache's plotted coordinates are moved after you logged it, your find will move as well.

Loop

pgc-badge.php?icon=TheAllAroundCacher&quality=D&loop=99&.png It's possible to loop this badge by finding mulitple geocaches in every sector. The sector with the least number of finds in it will set the loop number.

Addons

pgc-badge.php?icon=TheAllAroundCacher&quality=D&addons=leapday,ftf&.png

  • Leapday - Fill all 360 sectors with finds on Leap day to get this Addon.
  • FTF - Log an FTF in every single sector to enable this Addon.

Related tools

There is no tool yet, but there definitely will be. As soon as we get into a stable state with the Badges we will start working on this. Tools from other providers might no be fully compatible, this is because it's very complex to calculate the the angle between two points on the spherical Earth. There are many different formulas to use, some more exact than others. Also the number of decimals used might become relevant.

History

This Badge was added with the BadgeGen 4.0 release early 2020.
