The coordinates are found using a danish geocoder http://www.findvej.dk/
where he doesn't use so many decimals. I have contacted him before but
he doesn't think it matters so maybe after your test I should contact
him again and show him our discussion if it can help my project
finding the correct StreetView.

Maybe I should use this instead http://www.mapchannels.com/GeocoderSimple.aspx?
