             Bug #: 32407
           Summary: Too big precision of geographic coordinates.
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: any
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Maps
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified


I use decimal minutes format:

    $egMapsCoordinateNotation = Maps_COORDS_DM;

Example of code:

    * [[Coordinates::45° 0.001' N, 45° 0.001' E]]
    * {{ #show: {{ FULLPAGENAME }} | ?Coordinates }}

Result:

    * 45° 0.0010000000000332' N, 45° 0.0010000000000332' E
    * 45° 0.0010000000200705' N, 45° 0.0010000000200705' E 

For current GPS-based applications, there is far too many decimal digits. 3 (or
4) digits will be enough for Maps_COORDS_DM format.

For applications where higher precision is desirable, configuration settings
could be implemented.
