Comments:
The measurement office of the city of Frankfurt specified this place as a reference and reset point for GPS devices. The exact location of the point appears on the sign, so you can check the accuracy and bias of the GPS devices relative to the real point.

The sign was placed on June 13, 2014 and is 40x40 centimeters in size, and is located in a central location in the city, so it is accessible and available to the public.
