Latitude and longitude

edit

The given location is in a parking lot, away from the corner of Main and Oak Street. It should probably be moved to the corner building, but which corner? Since it's at least 200 feet away, it could be the corner across Oak Street. Art LaPella (talk) 15:56, 21 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

It's the southeast corner of the junction. Given the imprecision in the tools and the fact that the building has a huge rear wing, I was trying for the center of the building. Daniel Case (talk) 18:00, 21 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

I have experience moving coordinates, but what does "southeast corner" mean when Oak Street runs northwest to southeast? I would label the nearest corner "south" and the other corner "east". Art LaPella (talk) 18:07, 21 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
