Original Note:
Misleading post. A latitude to 7 decimal places specifies a location to approximately 1cm. Given the pyramid has sides 230 metres long, you could choose any values between 29.9782 and 29.9801 and still be inside the pyramid. The summit is at about 29.9794º north, not 29.9792º https://www.google.com/maps/place/The+Great+Pyramid+of+Giza/@29.979492,31.1341363,19.3z/data=!4m12!1m5!3m4!2zMjnCsDU4JzQ4LjAiTiAzMMKwMDAnMDAuMCJF!8m2!3d29.98!4d30!3m5!1s0x14584587ac8f291b:0x810c2f3fa2a52424!8m2!3d29.9791705!4d31.1342046!16zL20vMDM2bWs?entry=ttu
