Use reduced coordinates in CAF folder #32

Closed bleucitron closed 8 years ago

bleucitron commented 8 years ago

The CAF folder seems to generate files with lat-lon coordinates (geo_point_2d and geo_shape) with 10+ decimals of precision.

8 decimals (about 1mm) is more than enough is most cases. http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/8650/how-to-measure-the-accuracy-of-latitude-and-longitude

You should check how much size you can spare by keeping only 8 decimals in your coordinates.
