If this looks familar you may have seen its sister puzzle which is a similarly presented set of coordinates. But this requires a slightly different technique to determine ground zero - which can be determined exactly without any guesswork (which may be your first instinct after sorting out the first part). In fact there are least 3 ways determine to the location.
