teamdw Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 When changing location of a UTM coordinate from way point manager I go to change location. I enter 10 S 0580000 4175500 When I come back to this screen the coordinate has been changed to 10 S 0579999 4175500 Also on the map the location is not correct. It is off by about 200-300 feet. Am I doing something wrong or is there a fix for this? Thanks , any help would be greatly appreciated. Ps I am just learning to use a GPS Quote Link to comment
Grasscatcher Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Very likely what you are seeing is a Datum problem. Be sure the datum of the "source of the coordinates" and the datum your GPS is set on, are the same when you input the coordinates. Quote Link to comment
