Overview of 15km Radius The Victorian government announced the next stage for the travel limit for exercise and shopping will be changed to 15km. The 15km Radius web app enables people to quickly see the area covered by the 15km radius around them and the 15km radius overlap of their friends. To exercise people can travel up to 15km. To exercise with another person each person must not travel for more than 15km which means you need to find a place where both of you do not travel more than 15km. A feature of the 15km Radius web app is you can send your location to another person and that person can send you their location. Now both of you can see each other's location and where your 15km areas overlap. Using 15km Radius for just your location When you open the 15km Radius web app your location is provided by your device. Some mobile devices can be slow to update the location so an accuracy is provided. If you feel the accuracy isn't good enough reload the page by clicking on the Home option until you get the accuracy you'd prefer. Your current location is shown using a white marker. The red circle shows the area that is up to 15km around you. You can use the 15km Radius web app on a notebook or desktop computer but since those devices don't usually include a location capability, best results can be obtained using a mobile phone. Recent Windows 10 computers can manually set your default location. Using 15km Radius for you and a friend Send each other your locations. Click on the link you receive. Your friend will appear as a grey marker in a blue circle. You can see where the circles overlap and that is where you could potentially meet an exercise. Show friend's 15km radius by entering their GPS location If you don't feel like you and your friend sending each other your locations, you can use Google to find the location you want and enter the GPS coordinates of the location. You can do this as follows, or if you'd rather, watch a video.
Show 30km limit The 30km limit circle enables you to quickly see if someone you know around you is close enough to meet you for exercise. If another person is within the 30km limit then their 15km radius will overlap with your 15km radius. Map changes If you've noticed the map changes late afternoon or at night, you're not imagining things. Two services are used and the change is a result of exeeding Tomtom's quota and then OpenStreetMaps is used. My thanks and credit to both Tomtom and OpenStreetMaps for providing their services. |
