Webメルカトル(EPSG:3857)の罠

Critical Warning for Professionals: The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and other national mapping agencies explicitly advise AGAINST using Webメルカトル (EPSG:3857) for mission-critical, legal, or survey-grade applications.

What Web Mercator (EPSG:3857, valid -85.05° to +85.05°) Is NOT

  • NOT a conformal projection at high latitudes.
  • NOT suitable for area calculations (distortion grows with latitude).
  • NOT a substitute for local survey datums (NAD83, OSGB36).

Professional Standard

  • Use WGS84 (EPSG:4326) for raw GPS data.
  • Use State Plane / UTM for engineering distance.
  • Verify all transformations with control points.

測量過失と法的紛争:座標誤認の判例ベンチマーク

専門家の賠償責任データによれば、境界紛争における初期和解金の相場は概ね5,000〜20,000ドル程度ですが、測地誤差や過失を巡る本格的な法廷闘争に発展した場合、専門測量士の鑑定費用や訴訟費用が跳ね上がり、係争地の評価額を大幅に上回るリスクが生じます。

リスク指標: 想定法廷闘争・鑑定費用:5万〜15万ドル超(約750万〜2,200万円)
