Geocache Description:

or as an alternative title...

This can still be done with Excel - but it shouldn't be!

English descriptions below

This is a new version of this cache as the old one could not be unarchived. Same calculation, but an offset for correction in text below!


Deutsche Version

An den oben genannten Koordianten gibt es nichts zu finden - nur Autobahn. Bitte dort nicht suchen!

Wo kommen diese Daten bloß her? Und was stand vorher an den unlesbaren Stellen?
Wenn ihr die Zahlen unter den Buchstaben herausfinden könnt dann findet ihr den Cache mit Hilfe der Formel unten.

Kurze Erklärung: Die fehlenden Stellen können nicht aus den sichtbaren Daten rekonstruiert werden. Der Ursprung der Daten muss gefunden und genutzt werden und kann dann in eine Liste in der angegebenen Form abgerufen werden.
Für die Anzeige unten reichen Daten aus 1996 und Frankreich, Spanien und Schweden.

Dies ist der erste Teil einer Serie von Mysterycaches mit ansteigendem Schwierigkeitsgrad.
Teil I: It's not about the numbers (archviert)
Teil I: It's not about the numbers (new but old) (ersetzt den archvierten)
Teil II: It's sometimes about the numbers
Teil III: It's only about the numbers
Teil IV: It's again about the numbers
Teil V: It's again about the numbers - reloaded

English Language version

There is nothing to be found at the coordinates, just a highway. Please do not search there!

Where does this data come from? And what is missing on the unreadable bits?
If you manage to find out what numbers have been replaced by letters you can find the cache using the formula below.

Quick info: The missing data cannot be reconstructed with the data provided. The source of the data must be found and made usable and can then be transformed into a list as isplayed.
For this display the data from 1996 and France, Spain and Sweden is sufficient.

This is the first out of a set of mysteries with increasing difficulty.
Part I: It's not about the numbers (archived)
Part I: It's not about the numbers (new but old) (replaces the archived one)
Part II: It's sometimes about the numbers
Part III: It's only about the numbers
Part IV: It's again about the numbers
Part V: It's again about the numbers - reloaded
