This is a map of thecounties of Taiwan. Importantly, Taiwan has a couple of smaller islands and island groups with coverage that are fairly far away from the main island. It is important to be aware of these, as they often catch beginning players off-guard. These include: Kinmen close to the coast of mainland China. Lienchiang (Matsu Islands), also close to the coast of mainland China. Penghu in the middle of the Taiwan Strait. Green Island and Orchid Island, southeast of the main island.

Many poles in Taiwan feature theseblue plaqueswith strings of letters and numbers that act as precise coordinates. For an example of how to read the plaques in-game, the only thing that is useful here is the string “E3264”. “BE08” can further narrow down the position but is not practical in-game. “E” refers to the 50x80km rectangle from this map. “3264” means that within the rectangle, we are 32% eastward and 64% northward.

Tanzania hasextremely limited coverage: Several Generation 3 trekkers in Gombe National Park. There is also one small indoor tripod in this park. A couple of tripods on Mount Kilimanjaro. Some spill coverage, made with a regular Google car, on the border with Kenya. This guide only discusses the trekkers and tripods. For the spills, see ourspillover guide. It should be noted that none of the trekkers and tripods are pinpointable, or even on a road, and therefore they typically do not appear in serious competitive maps. This guide describes them primarily for the sake of completeness. The spills however do appear in maps from time to time. Due to the sparse nature of the coverage, that is also entirely not on any streets, it is not useful to learn any territory identification metas. Instead, it is better to just memorise what the trekkers and tripods look like.

On Mount Kilimanjaro, there are a couple oftripods. This is a type of coverage made with a regular camera mounted on a tripod. As a result, this coverage has a distinct ethereal look, compared to normal street view: objects in the image will usually have motion blur, and slightly saturated colours.
