Care to shed more info on this? Or point me to the right direction?

Re: the original thread.

I think you guys should see this as an interesting challenge, and the flavor of us subs. They measured this and that in the imperial system in RL, so you should accept it too. Are we simulating the US Silent Service or not?

Besides, if both instruments, available data and maps are measured the same way, it shouldn't be a problem.
