Code Cracker #1 Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Mongo: Greetings,

I hate to see any cache go, but I am archiving this cache since there's been no response from, nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note.

CACHE ARCHIVAL IS PERMANENT

Geocaches not maintained by the owner will still be archived even when a throwdown container has been left. Ownership Regarding Throwdowns

Regretfully,

Geocache Description:

This is the first cache of a new series I've been dying to start. This Cache (just like future caches in this series) will include a code that you must crack in order to obtain the final coordinates. If done so correctly then you'll find the container in no time! Have fun cracking this first code and happy hunting!

(Congrats to DiceMan71 and moonchild1800 on FTF!)

Complete this puzzle in order to obtain the coordinates:

The below body of text consists of 1's and 0's. These two digits make up a certain kind of code that is used for most of technology and even the screen you're looking at right now. I won't spoil what the code type is called but once you find it out, translate it to recieve the final coordinates and to figure out where this Geocache is hidden!
