RE: [OpenMap Users] Double v.s. Floats in Openmap

Joel,

I have that problem. I work with satellite imagery. Don explained that
it was a decision made in 1996 or something like that. I would love a
version that uses doubles though if you make the conversion.

Subject: [OpenMap Users] Double v.s. Floats in Openmap

We use the LatLon and UTM points for some calculations where we project
points that need to have a margin of error of about a foot. We then need
to draw these points on a mercator projection.

Basically, the floats just weren't accurate enough. Has anyone else run
into this problem?

We have modified a few of the OpenMap classes to make it possible to use
doubles rather than floats for these features, but I wanted to make sure
that I wasn't missing something.

Thanks.
