+Team DaddieMark Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Is it possible to create or show a map of all hides by a particular CO? We have a fav CO and would like to seehis hides on a map. Quote Link to comment
+niraD Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 The only way I can think of is to create a bookmark list of the owner's caches (or to use an existing bookmark list created by someone else), to create a PQ using that bookmark list, and to view (or preview) the PQ on the map.

+geodarts Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 (edited) To simply map the results, you can go to the search page of the website and search by owner. If you want to create a list of all the hides by an owner, you can go to the geocaches tab of the co's profile and download the waypoints for all the hides. This would have to be done on a page by page basis, but the results can be imported into mapping programs, apps, or a gpsr. Certain third party tools that use geocaching live (Groundspeak API), such as GSAK or various caching apps, allow you to search by owner - although this may require you to run multiple searches depending on the distance or numbers. You could also use or GSAK or caching apps to filter larger pocket queries or search results by owner. Edited December 9, 2015 by geodarts Quote Link to comment
+Nerre Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Or you could ask the owner, if he could please create a PQ of his own and unarchived caches. As he - unlike you - could select the "caches I own" and "not archived" options in the PQ creation, all of his active caches and only those would get selected. Quote Link to comment
+hzoi Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Is it possible to create or show a map of all hides by a particular CO? We have a fav CO and would like to seehis hides on a map. I see you use project-gc.com for your profile stats. If I recall correctly, you can use that site to create just such a map. Can't check details now, unfortunately, as my work blocks it.

+The A-Team Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 The new search will do exactly what you want. Here's the relevant page from my guide that shows you how. Once you perform that search and get a list of the CO's caches, you'll just need to click the Map These Results link to see them on a map. Quote Link to comment
