2000 year GPS measurements.

Considered to be more precise than our last year measurements as US government stopped its activity of sending special cyclic errors (up to100 m), now  measurement accuracy is within 2-3 meters. However be aware that the track may go slightly otherwise every year. 

(In the table coordinates are in degrees/minutes/thousandths format, On the picture coordinates are converted into decimal numbers.)
