HOW MAPDOT PROTOCOL Converts Geographic Coordinates to a Sequence [Feel free to use or publish.]
MapDot_Protocol gives a "library-shelf" location for every MapDot on Planet Earth. These locations come first in the Flag-Cat-Key list of subjects of focus.
NOTE: Converting Longitude & Latitude co-ordinates to MapDot_Protocol can be done by hand or by spreadsheet etc. eg, Quatro Spreadsheet Geographic Coordinates to MapDot Protocol (59Kb download) MapDot Applications: to index databases with a "geocode"; to select and sort; to list location-focused items in a "library-shelf" sequence; to flag a blog or personal Web-page with a rendezvous keyword in text and meta-tag... Methods for finding adjacent MapDots can be devised. Concatenated region blocks can be selected using MapDot_Protocol. MapDot_Protocol is a find-select-n-sortable character-string, not a quantity; however, it is a classification system and "controlled vocabulary". It can be useful to attach a code from another "dimention" classification for especial chronological era, year or cultural aspect, eg, "MapDot#02C605-@w80-Glenrowan esp-1880"; "MapDot#1437F0-y22-Cebu esp-music".
