If you are trying for very high precision that may be a little long.

Three words: .... Low ... Distortion.... Projection.

Well, that's embarrassing. I've been using DNA03, DNA10, and LS15 for over 20 years and never really paid enough attention to those numbers to compreh...

Probably not. With moderately careful handling individual readings that differ by more than 0.001' out of a geodetic quality digital level are rare. S...
