Unless otherwise instructed, latitude and longitude will be presented as degrees, minutes, and seconds. Direction indicators N or W will prefix the value and seconds will be carried out five places right of the decimal where accuracy is to approximately 0.001 feet.

Units of length will be in U.S. Survey Feet in all deliverables. Horizontal coordinates should be carried out to 0.01 feet, unless otherwise instructed.

Conversion from meters to U. S. Survey Feet must be made using the following formula:

Meters * 3937/1200 = U. S. Survey Feet

The factor is 3.280833333333 and working with State Plane Coordinates (SPCs) in the millions, one must carry the factor out to 12 places to the right of the decimal as shown.
