The Noise Floor at my #QTH is ALWAYS BAD. Even more so when I go vertical like this morning when attempting some #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #SSB on 20 meters. Not quite as bad using #MorseCode CW @skccgroup #SKCC #QSO Party

I was going for a Cup of Joe Patio 40m #SKCCgroup #QSO party contacts with @Buddipole #buddipolepowermini #ft891 but not with a +S9 noise floor. Everyday all at my #QTH #amateurradio #hamradio

The numerous geocoding systems vary in #granularity (#precision) achieved with a certain amount of letters, & in their audience or #community.
Above, I gave the example of #Maidenhead Locators (#QTH) commonly used by #HamRadio people.
Different cultures use different #geocode|s for reasons.
AFAIC, it would allianate communities to single out a particular system & mark it as ›general‹ by using a prefix like ›#GEO‹.
Platforms should #welcome & represent a variety of cultures.

Btw, #normalization of #georeference|s is not trivial, because it requires techniques called #InstanceMatching.
It's an entire field of ongoing research.
A search for one of the #Berlin|s should be able to come up with

People who want to use exact #georeferencing in a posting should have a way to do so, for example for offline events or to describe #geospatial (or #marsian) features.

I take it for granted that users must be able to decide upon the precision of the #geocoding they use for their postings.
And that they must also be able to decide upon the geogaphic range of search when they lookup #georef|erenced postings.

The location property of the #ActivityVocabulary does not only support exact locations but also areas in the sense that it allows for ›logical locations‹.
A logical location could be ›near Berlin«, but also a #geocode with reduced precision.

Relax, no one is seeking to re-invent any wheel.
This thread is more about usability than it is about implementation.
No one can make use of #semantic properties in a vocabulary as long as they do not show up in frontends.
So, rather than deter consideration, let's keep the dialogue going.

After some testing, it would be worth to consider #geocoding of postings as a #FeatureRequest to #Fediverse developers, preferably not as #hashtag but as a separate property of postings, like #ContentWarning:
CW is implemented using the #abstract property of #ActivityPub.
To create a CW when boosting a #Friendica posting on #Mastodon, the author uses [abstract] markup in the Friendica posting.
Similar may be possible for #geocode|s.

Have a look at my use of #geocoding hashtags:
→ https://mastodon.social/@jpreisendoerfer/109727868336726649
I think it'd be better to prefix the respective #geocode with an abbreviation indicating its type.
#HamRadio people will often want to use #Maidenhead (#QTH) locators rather than #OpenLocationCode (#PlusCode).
Plus char can be dropped from OLC, because ›OLC‹ indicates #PlusCode.
For reduced precision, drop trailing OLC letters.
