Yes, but i’m finding, increasingly, that while we have the means to accurately record data, even accounting for float point errors by reducing area of coverage, things are simply not reported or cared about. It took us a considerable amount of investigation in using an rtk system to actually set things up correctly to get it to actually work within it’s 1cm accuracy. This is stuff like contacting rtk service providers to find out what system they actually correct their coordinates to.
To me, the greatest innovation any provider could do is just specifying the coordinate system used
EDIT: in fact i am finding it shocking, it’s even invoking government regulation, the simple fact is, even using advanced systems from leading suppliers, vital facts are just not recorded because geographic coordinates system are so numerous and complex suppliers just offer defaults and do the real work in the background
Even here, i hope you don’t misunderstand a geographic system as we talk about all coordination systems, as opposed to geographic vs projected coordinate systems
