#77: Coordinates are off when viewed from Google ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ Reporter: ivorw | Owner: earle Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: london.openguides.org Version: svn | Severity: normal Resolution: | Keywords: geodata ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ Comment (by ChristopherSchmidt):
London for a long time used a manual converter from OS X/Y coords to GpS Lat/Lon. This converter used Airy projection. Google Maps uses WGS-84 projection. Although one may be more accurate on the actual planet or somethign (I don't know) many of London's points will not map properly onto Google Maps because of this.
