Is there any chance of getting the same done for other states?
probably
I need a good map of said state in JPG or PNG format with known co-ords of the top left/bottom right sides of the bitmap, plus a GPX file of ALL the caches in that state (current and archived) (without logs is preferred).... My tool will use that GPX file to ...ummm<cough>... update my log database and then the animation can be run
Its a little convoluted, but I wouldnt mind doing another state or 6. Plus I havent tested my stats collector I use on another state yet.......
I've got a map of SA in PNG format, but its probably not clear enough like your tasi one is. Though having said that SA is a little bigger than tasi, so it will be tougher getting a good clear map, especially one that will show enough spread for metro, so that it isnt just one big lump in the end.
If you want, i can e-mail you the image, and see if it will do for what we want?
