This cache has been archived.

Toa Norik: #This cache has been archived by a Swedish reviewer#

Hej aviate!

För ett tag informerade vi dig om att allt inte verkade stå rätt till med din cache och bad dig då ta reda på hur det stod till, samt åtgärda eventuella problem. Då det inte syns några tecken på att du gjort det, kommer jag nu att arkivera din cache.

Jag ber dig plocka in ev. rester av din cache så att de inte ligger kvar och skräpar ner.

Hälsningar
Toa Norik, reviewer

Geocache Description:


In Rome The patronus was the protector, sponsor, and benefactor of the client. The former would possess greater power or abilities that enabled them to help or do favors for the client. Thanks to your smartphone you can get your own Patronus at Malmö C! He will help you show the places and the signs needed to find this AR cache.

“This cache is part of an experiment that allows the use of Augmented Reality (AR) apps to find the cache. At the end of this experiment, Geocaching HQ will decide if this cache will be grandfathered or archived. Geocaching HQ reserves the right to archive this cache at any time if conditions change. If you have found this cache and would like to give feedback on your experience, please fill out this survey.”

.

You will need the HP Reveal app. It is available for download int the App store/Play both for iOS and Android. This AR cache should be rather quick to solve, less then half an hour for most.

.

Instructions:
- Download the HP Reveal app
- Register as user in the app
- Search for 'aviate' and follow 'aviates public auras'.
- Restart the app or refresh the auras.
- Stand at cache coordinates
- Use the scanning function of the app, scan the area for clues to the location of the cache. I recommend looking at the second floor of the station as a starting point.
- Have fun!

General Hints for AR caches: Remember that the AR needs daylight to work really well. Don't stand to close to the object you are scanning; it often works better if you take two steps back. Sweep the area a few times, If a car or person got in your way the scan might not work the first time.
This cache first stages can be very tricky depending on factors such as what phone you use and time of day. Read the hint to bypass them. The rest of the cache is technically simple and should be easy.

Malmö Malmö Central stod färdig 1858, två år efter det att järnvägen mellan Lund och Malmö invigts första gången. Stationen låg då i stadens utkant men nära färjorna till Köpenhamn som gick från Inre hamnen alldeles framför stationsbyggnaden. Med tiden anslöts fler banor till Malmö och då behövdes fler spår och större banhallar. Den stora nya banhallen med 4 nya spår blev klar 1891. Det var också då skyltar och tecken som inte syns med bara ögat monterades upp. Det är tur att du som cachare vet hur att se dem..
