That being said, the first order of the day was to work out which way to go.
From her notional start time of 9am (we are working on timetabled time here), and assuming she took a long distance train, she could only have gone North towards Berlin and Stralsund or South towards München. We didn’t think Leipzig was likely.
So in order to work out which direction to go, we asked her if her location was closer to sea level than we were at 110 metres. They are closer, and so we can discount the more mountainous southern region.
And we are now on a train heading North…

As we ride this train up north towards Berlin, we entered the Land of Brandenburg. This meant we could ask them if they were in this Land, to which the answer is no. That being said she could still have been in Berlin. So we asked her if her nearest commercial airport was the same as ours (BER), and it isn’t. So, whilst there is an outside chance she could be somewhere else, we are now working on the assumption she’s in Mecklemburg-Vorpommen, based on travel time. We’ve adjusted our mapping app accordingly, in order to make it more responsive.
