I changed this to "coordinates-reached" (after our email discussions). I believe that most of the community would agree that it's not necessary to zero the distance if the only obstruction is crop damage. In this case, anything 10 metres or less is close enough and within the circle of uncertainty of many devices.

There is another circle of uncertainty not reported by the receiver. Zones in the atmosphere with different temperature and humidity cause refraction. In turbulent weather the hashpoint can drift around more than 10 metres. I have retro-hashed several locations and discovered that the point on the ground has moved several metres. GPS is not as accurate as we'd like. [1] --Sourcerer (talk) 15:40, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
