Hi again, a beginner question here:  
I’m bringing Sigfox messages in through a callback. In a debug node right after the webhook, the lat and lng values appear rounded to the nearest tenth, while on the Sigfox backend I’m seeing over 10 decimal places. Could you help me figure out where the extra decimal places are being lost?

Thanks!

They are rounded by Sigfox when they are sent. Here’s the relevant line from the backend documentation:

I don’t know why they’re rounded. Maybe to obfuscate the exact location of the base stations for security purposes.
