So, I asked Google's AI this question, but stated it in two different
ways: "How many significant digits after the decimal point does Google
map, or Google Earth use?"
 
1. Google, in contexts like displaying latitude and longitude
coordinates on maps, uses 14 significant digits after the decimal
point.
 
2. Google Maps and Google Earth typically use 6 to 7 significant
digits after the decimal point
 
Second answer is the more correct one, but first answer is off the
charts.

Not for a while for that; just that a human doctor will be aided in
