FIRST Team Map
Well, I was curious, and wanted to see what it would be like to plot the locations of FIRST teams on a map; so, this is the result:
![]() Clicking on the image will take you to a much larger version (it's 1.7 MB and 2048x1024 pixels-- or in other words, not at all friendly for dial-up) For those interested in some of the technical details: The data for the map was taken from TIMS via the database available at http://www.team358.org/files/team_lookup/public/ and the image is hosted by the openFIRST project; the background image is in the public domain and can be found at numerous places on the Internet. Some of the teams didn't have enough information to lookup their geographical coordinates, so they haven't been shown. |

Re: FIRST Team Map
Could you find the coordinates for Brazilian teams, Israeli teams, and the one Mexican team?

Re: FIRST Team Map
The dot in South America looks like it is in Ecuador or Peru rather than in Brazil. It is far west of where Brazil actually is.

Re: FIRST Team Map
Coming soon to an Earth near you; an Australian team (or 2). Stay tuned.

Re: FIRST Team Map
cool map. Really gives you an idea on the density of first teams in certain areas on a global scale. I never really realized how many teams there are in the north eastern part of the country. Looks like you could almost go from Maine to Atlanta without leaving the red dots (what does one of those dots equal, somewhere between a 25 and 50 mile radius?)

Edit: Just a note; that's width/height of cube (or diameter if you're treating it as a circle); not radius Last edited by Timothy D. Ginn : 06-01-2005 at 10:36 PM. |

Re: FIRST Team Map
I was trying to access the file of the picture to look at it and it was coming down very slowly. something like .2 Kbps. Does openFIRST do something during the night that makes it slow down? I am accessing the file at 12:43am EST. The website opens correctly. But not the large file.
Just a bug I guess? -Mike |
