I doubt there is a definitive answer. My code is written on the
middle of the pixel assumption, but in the vast majority of
conditions it makes little or no effect. For example, the zoom
function of radar-find:
http://findu.com/cgi-bin/radar-find.cgi?call=k4hg-8&zoom=4
the difference between assuming left-upper and center is two pixels,
less than the width of the dot. Using plot.cgi it matters even less,
as the icons are wider.
Granted with overlays of radar the potential is there for increased
errors, but my point is up until this time it has not mattered much,
so no one really defined it...
