1. but why suppose an eglysd datum has ever been stated or even can be synthesized
    yikes i have been so gulled into thinking we are dealing with a set of normal boundaries here at eglysd & that they will be behaving like any others like for

    aha & far better we just ask the egypt border force if it happens to have gps era survey data on this southernmost egly marker at any level of exactitude &

    While you re corresponding with them, couldn t you just ask if there is an official datum for the delimited but undemarcated portions of the EGLY boundary and

    thanxx i appreciate the question no less than the critical review behind it but first with regard to the egsd signs all indications thus far are that they date

    ... displacement both potentially & typically i believe is in the longitude rather than the latitude

    & actually this whole excursion into datum shifts will prove unnecessary if we can get our southernmost egly rock coords in wgs84 in which case the latitudinal

    Boiling it down to actual numbers: Points defined using the datums typically used in Egypt are approximately 130m meridianally distant and 117m lattitudinally

    Not necessarily - different datums do not give rise to absolutely parallel lines of longitude and lattitude when compared with each other. They are generally

  10. Re: but why suppose an eglysd datum has ever been stated or even can be synthesized
    in this you are both absolutely correct & right on point as well for if we found the southernmost egly rock to be 10 meters off the wgs84 25th meridian then
