   Not very accurate? 
   
   15 places after the decimal is like centimeters of accuracy.
   
   Most mobile phones only have the capability of giving you a GPS point with about 3-5 meter accuracy. And to get a meter accuracy, you only need approximately 5 digits after the decimal.
   
   I've provided a proof case here:
