The aim of the project is to calculate the circumference of the Earth in a collaborative process.

Our final result, is calculated with an average of 802 collaborative mesaures.

	number of collaborative measures	month average circumference (km)
January	31	40732
February	45	40946
March	99	39683
April	43	40984
May	79	40201
June	82	40516
July	65	40374
August	77	40407
September	94	40078
October	74	39429
November	61	39046
December	52	40123

Average	802	40210 km

The accepted measurement of the Earth's circumference today is about 40075km

the relative error of our collaborative calculation is (40210-40075)x100/40075 = 0.34%
