With mobile devices with web and GPS becoming more
and more common it
would be wonderful if wikipedia had the ability to return pages 'close' to
a given location.
Such an application does already exist (but might need to be adapted for
mobile devices), made by [[:de:User:Kolossos]]
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProjekt_Georeferenzierung/Wikipe…
example:
http://toolserver.org/~kolossos/wp-world/umkreis.php?la=en&lon=13.73333…
rang= is the range in kilometers
set map=1 for a simple 2d scatter plot of the links
