  • . According to the Munich Orientation Convention www.volksnav.com/LondonCity, the logical London address of the Redsand towers place is: - StatusQuo(c) LON m3:30 r740 that means: - 740 x 100 meters from London Tower (radius) - in direction m3 (horizon hour) (m12 = from London Tower to north) and - 30 x 100 meters "later" than m3 (horizon minutes) Such codes will substitute postal codes, in harmony with maps and codes for crossings, stop points, bridges etc. .
