Geography Club
The GeoGuessr club at the University of Pennsylvania. Members learn to identify locations from visual detail, play ranked games within the club, and compete against other universities.

What happens at a meeting
Locations are worked out from visual evidence: road markings, bollards, licence plates, vegetation, signage, and which side of the road traffic uses. These details can be learned, and most members improve quickly.
GeoMeta workshops
One region is covered in detail each month, including bollards, licence plates, camera generation, and vegetation.
Internal ladder
Ranked play within the club, so members are matched against others at a similar level. Participation is optional.
GeoBowl and Pinpoint
Quizbowl-style geography nights with a buzzer, and a photo-guessing challenge using pictures of campus taken by members. Neither requires GeoGuessr experience.
Collegiate GeoGuessr League
The club fields players against other universities, including Princeton and Brown. The league has four skill divisions, so beginners are matched with players at their own level. Tryouts are optional, and membership does not require competing.
Meeting times
General body meetings run weekly from September 14. Everything else is optional.
