Haskell user locations

This page keeps track of the members of the #haskell IRC channel community. It is up to date with http://www.haskell.org/hawiki/HaskellUserLocations as of 20070209. Also see http://www.haskellers.com

# Like [http://www.cliki.net/ CLiki]'s [http://www.cliki.net/xearth xearth]
# page, this page is a valid data file for XEarth with positions of various
# HaskellIrcChannel denizens.
# Please add yourself! (decimal or d/m/s notation are ok)

# To find your latitude and longitude, the following are helpful:
#   www.maporama.com
#   maps.google.com (The link-to-this-page option encodes the lat/long as follows:  For example, if the link is "http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=ja&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=103277767534941854455.00046212d902cbd915f84&ll=35.78426,139.346294&spn=0.098175,0.154495&z=13&iwloc=00046212d917c7f187cb2", then the latitude is 35.78426, and the longitude is 139.346294.)

# To fetch this data file for use in XEarth, you could do something like this:
# wget "http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/HaskellUserLocations" -O haskellers.markerfile
# and then invoke xearth with -markerfile haskellers.markerfile
#
# Try to keep the list in sort -nr order, i.e. sorted by latitude, then 
# longitude.

How to produce xplanet images:

get xplanet
convert a suitable earth image from http://visibleearth.nasa.gov/view_rec.php?vev1id=11656 into .jpg and stick it in share/xplanet/images (I use the 170M 21600 x 10800 .tif , however you'll need a fast machine and more than 1G of ram to make this pleasant). To convert a .tif to a decent .jpg,
```
tifftopnm| pnmtojpeg
```
seems to work nicely.
download the markers file, and remove the header and footer. This sed will do the job:

w3m -dump http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/HaskellUserLocations | sed '1,/^#Latitude Longitude/d;/# END OF FILE/,$d' > haskell-markers

create the following xplanet config file:

       [earth]
       "Earth"
       shade=100
       marker_color=white
       marker_file=haskell

where your marker file lives in

share/xplanet/markers

.

The following command lines generate each image, roughly (note that we crop antarctica off the whole-globe map):

       xplanet -num_times 1 -config haskell -pango -fontsize 6 -geometry 800x600 -projection mercator -output /tmp/mercator1.jpg
       jpegtran -crop 800x450+0+50 /tmp/mercator1.jpg > /tmp/mercator.jpg
       xplanet -num_times 1 -config haskell -pango -fontsize 6 -geometry 400x400 -latitude 50 -longitude 10 -radius 150 -output /tmp/euro.jpg
       xplanet -num_times 1 -config haskell -pango -fontsize 6 -geometry 400x400 -latitude 32 -longitude -95 -radius 100 -output /tmp/na.jpg
       xplanet -num_times 1 -config haskell -pango -fontsize 6 -geometry 400x400 -latitude -25 -longitude 142 -radius 100 -output /tmp/au.jpg
       xplanet -num_times 1 -config haskell -pango -fontsize 6 -geometry 400x400 -latitude 51.8 -longitude 7 -radius 400  -output /tmp/weuro.jpg

The exact script used to generate the above images is here: http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~dons/haskell-planet

As an alternative, you could use xearth or xglobe. E.g. to view the Channel area with xearth

xearth -noroot -pos fixed/50/2 -markerfile haskellers.markerfile -night 30 -mag 10 -label -font "-*-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-*-*-100-75-75-m-*-iso8859-1"
