OK! Sorry if my English was not clear. That is indeed what I meant, the units of the latitude and longitude. It is a very common mistake. Even our national authorities made this mistake when requesting the position of radio transmitter antennas and putting them on a map. Most were off by a few km because the positions were requested one way, then processed another way (just like you did), requiring the whole job to be re-done at the taxpayer's cost.
