Hi latlongers, one way to check is to view the lat and long values as xy points in an excel or similar graph. I did this for our own small country. While the points to the west and north are petrochemical platforms at sea, and OK (because Dutch), the points to the east and south are most probably in error. The map is attached, it is quite small. This does not tell you much about most of the points, but we know now that some of the points must be in error, and so all should be treated with caution. Oh well, I just did it for the funny effect on the excel screen.. Rudolf 52-30'N 4-40'E (really, almost)
-----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- From: Taudin Chabot Anselmo, Those files are great. But be careful: in the Dutch file there are in many cases incorrect decimal values of the latitude and longitude. It looks as if in these cases the decimal point should be 1 position more to the left (same as divide by 10). I did not check any other file.
