Geocache Description:

This micro-cache takes you to see the building for Departments of Automation and Systems Technology and Industrial Engineering and Management at HUT campus.

The initial coordinates should take you close to a plaque that has some information about the construction of the building. In order to determine the location of the cache you need to collect the following information:

  • A = Number of all scandic letters (å, ä, ö) in the plaque.
  • B = The first number in the plaque.
  • C = Number of companies mentioned in the plaque.
  • D = Number of hyphens ('-' characters) in the plaque.
  • E = Number of instances of letter pair "OY".

Now determine the value of X using the following formula: X = (B-C)/(1000*E) + (D-A)

Now, do the following:

  1. Add the value of X to the decimal part (three digits) of the northern latitude in the initial coordinates.
  2. Substract the value of X from the decimal part of the eastern longitude in the initial coordinates.

Go to the new coordinates. The hideout should be obvious.
