All I learned from that about the big picture is that you are dealing with coordinates and you have some (undisclosed) way of making a key from the coordinates for each "something" you want to store. I still have no idea about what you actually want to store in a hashy thing, nor what you intend to do with it once stored.
Without know what you want to eventually do with this stuff, I still think using a database (DBI and DBD::SQLite) is likely to be a good solution to the problem. But, again, if you can mock up something close to your real problem in 30 or so lines (fudge the calculations etc.) then we can probably give you a good starting point for the data management code.
True laziness is hard work

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
