I was surprised today by an email request which quoted latitude and longitude co-ordinates to 15 decimal places of a degree, presumably obtained from a website. These would appear to locate a precise spot at the nanometre or even picometre level. Can anyone suggest an application which would require this degree of accuracy? Birmingham New Street station doesn't!
