      Just noticed:

      I start a new file.

      I manually set the geo location for a project somewhere in the Netherlands.

      If I check the model attributes for the file (with a small plugin of mine), I see a large translation is added to the file (keys and values for GeoReference attribute).

      Why? Whats the logic for the translation? Could it affect the accuracy of the units?

      If I start a new file and check the attributes, there's no translation so it must be added by the geo location action. I noticed a similar translation in many other files that are geo located.

      Just being curious here...

        I believe that translation is your model units from Sketchups orgin at 0.00, 0.00 based on the lat/long of the location you selected, hope that makes sense, not sure if I explained myself clearly
