Do you *really* need that level of precision? Six decimal places is
enough to get a marker with an accuracy of around a metre. The last
digit you're losing represents a hundredth of a nanometre.

If your markers are misplaced, you probably need to look a little
nearer the decimal point than the fourteenth decimal place.
