Greetings What is the point of converting the time honoured Latitude and Longitude into 57 trillion meaningless three word phrases? Considering Latitude, Degrees, Minutes and decimals of a minute, the third decimal of a minute fixes the North/South location to 1.8 metres. Considering Longitude, the third decimal of a minute fixes the East/West location to 1.8 metres at the equator reducing to zero metres at the poles. These are readily available on a GPS receiver. Why bother with the other nonsense? Neil Cheshire
