This here is a map depicting the mileages from the Whipple Section - Buckeye Trail (North Country concurrent). This is along North Country's route to the west. The whole thing is done, but it would look like a mess in one image. Like I mentioned in a previous log, this project has a dual purpose. One is for a mileage sheet to go into the Trail Manuals at two shelters in SE Ohio. The other is for our Early Warning System that pertains to mobilizing trail angels and resupply in the area. I believe that i can make this data user friendly for all involved internally in Adventurer's Project?
The way that the Early Warning Map works is that hikers would report their positions somehow and we in far SE Ohio would track them as they come in based on what they report. From that, we should be able to predict their arrival based on their pattern? We'll have to readjust for irregularities, but the closer they get to us, the more accurate the prediction becomes.
At this point, all that I have to do now is enter the mileages into the Trail Manual.
