Limit latitude and longitude precision

Yury GPS 2 months ago

Is it possible to limit the maximum precision of decimal places in GPS messages for latitude and longitude columns, for example, to 6-5 digits? Sometimes there are a lot of numbers after the dot, which is completely unnecessary.

Limit where?

Maybe at saving to database.
6 digits is already an accuracy of up to 11 centimeters, so everything below just can't be true in the context of civilian GPS trackers, so I wouldn't even store this data in a database.

It would be great if there was an option in the configuration file that limits the number of decimal places for coordinates that are saved to the database when receiving from devices.

Location is stored in double type in the database, so there's no such concept as decimal places.
