Lets hope this system doesn't take root.. their aim is clearly to own a way of encoding positions for profit and control .. but it raises some interesting questions. It claims to have imposed a rectangular 3m square grid on the earth, as the surface is topologically a sphere this is not possible as it is not parallelizable. It would be a bit like a crystal with defects or small irregularities. Wonder how they chose these small deviations? And is the translation to lat and long based on WGS 84?
