NORWEGIAN PRIME NUMBER CODE

Casey Farrell, industrial designer (BIG STAR) March 31, 2009

This is in response to a very interesting story I just read in my copy of ESRI-Spring 2009
http://www.esri.com/arcnews Arc News; Vol. 31 No.1 which is on Page 35-

"......in a Norwegian County" by Ragnhild Vognild

which got me to thinking about how one might 'Twitter' the REGION via the MAP using PRIME
NUMBERS for the 24-LETTER Scandinavian Alphabet we use in Norway, Sweden, & Denmark.

Also the front page of this issue has a National Geographic Magazine article "Geopgraphic Literacy in U.S. by 2025" by Daniel C. Edelson, V.P. for Education; Nat. Geo. Society. Something called 'Geo Learning' we could also ally to the term "LOCALISATION" of which I am about to give an example here and now-

"AE E I A"

11 13 17 19 23 29 31 37 41 43 47 50
A B D E F G H I J K L M
N O P R S T U V Y AE OE AA
53 59 60 61 67 70 71 73 79 83 89 97


So, then the TITLE can be either rendered in the "SUBSTITUTION CODE" (AE E I A)
as "K R V N" or as PRIME NUMBERS (two-digit) as corresponds w/ each letter;

"83 19 37 11". Maybe this system could be used as a 'reverse cartography' for REFERENCE.

For the letters C,Q,W,X, & Z these are represented by letters K,G,V,OE,& S, respectively
while the combination 'QU' in this sytem is represented by our combination "KV". One note:
The use of OE for X is a unique representation in any transliteration scheme, but it works!
