What is the benefit of using float as compared to double on the lat/long? I learned to use double but never looked past that as it worked and appeared accurate. Self taught here with over 7 years of GIS experience.... I love to learn new things every day! GREAT video!
Double is great and there is little disadvantage, so keep using it. I like the float for the typically shorter 6 numbers past the decimal point because most location reporting doesn't require any more precision. Here we have centroids, so certainly no need for double level precison for centroid coordinates.
Thanks for the insight, but how can we download the Maxar imagery
