The PQ Splitter is a tool to help the user select dates on which to split their Pocket Queries on Geocaching.com. Since Project-GC's data might sometimes be a bit out of date, a reserve of 10 geocaches per Pocket Query is set: that is, if the user selects to split on every 1000 caches, the tool will split at 990 to make it more likely that caches will fit. This is to accommodate for the rare instance in which geocache listings are unarchived.

Different filters, such as Cache location, Cache type / size, Difficulty / Terrain, Hide Found/Owned/Not found, Hide premium, Center/radius(km), and From/To Hidden date can be applied.

The results pages shows the dates on which the Pocket Queries should be split, the number of GPX files that will be needed, and the total number of caches. The option for splitting at 1000 or at 500 is shown because 500 used to be the limit for e-mailed Pocket Queries.
