Thanks Will,
I think I get all that. ( but I'm not sure where 'level' should be...
sealevel?) But what coordinate reference system, and what semantics
should i use to making everything painlessly web accessible?
GeoRSS is 2D.

After asking myself why;-) here's a quick and dirty method.
First measure the lengths of your walls with tape or disto. Lets say
your room is 10 metres by 5 metres. Then divide this into theoretical
grid squares of your choosing ie 1 metre squares.
Pick a corner and call this 0.000, 0.000 (this is your bottom left of
your living room "grid" if you drew it on paper). Diagonally across
(ie top right corner) from this coordinate is 10.000, 5.000. You can
then get any coordinate in the room from this grid.
To get a z level (elevation) measure up from your floor and "set a
level" one metre or whatever up, mark it with pencil etc.

I'm thinking of mapping my living room. Does anyone have any
sugggestions How should I convert the location of furniture,
lamps, into location coordinates? I think I know how to do x and
y, but z is a problem, though highly useful for finding things
like books.

Hi,
Just a lazy question from a novice geowanker I suppose...but it might save
me an evenings surfing though if you can help.
I have googled a bit, with a few solutions... but does anyone have a perl
script (or a site) to hand, to do Lat Long conversions to X Y? I have UK
postcode/outcode/location database that I want to convert from L Lo to X Y.
Again, "X Y" doesn't seem to mean anything specific, but a number of
useful tools and code samples, including stuff relating to OSGB grid refs,
can be found here:
