Matsuya Ota Maruyama Store Adjusts Longitude by 0.000001 Degrees Ahead of Today's Opening — About a 9cm Tweak
At 9:59 AM on April 25, a longitude correction was confirmed in the store data for Matsuya Ota Maruyama Store (1380 Maruyama-cho, Ota City, Gunma Prefecture), which is scheduled to open today, April 25, at 10:00 AM.
Change Details
| Item | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| Longitude (lon) | 139.380652 | 139.380651 |
| Difference | — | -0.000001 degrees |
A longitude difference of 0.000001 degrees corresponds to roughly 9 centimeters at around 35 degrees east longitude. It’s an adjustment so small it’s virtually invisible on a map, likely a final coordinate correction made right before opening.
One Minute Until Opening
As of this post, there is one minute remaining until the scheduled 10:00 AM opening. The store, whose opening was pushed back four days from the originally planned April 21 to April 25, is seeing fine data adjustments made right down to the wire.
Editor's Note
The longitude was corrected by 9cm one minute before opening. Matsuya's meticulous data management shows itself down to the millimeter — or, more precisely, the centimeter.
