Validity of geographical coordinates returned by Mappoint   
We are using the mappoint web services in one of our application and found 
that the coordinates returned for some of the countries are not the same as 
returned by other websites. 

We are using the values returned by the following URL to validate our 
coordinates.

http://www.satsig.net/maps/lat-long-finder.htm
http://www.pixeldevelopment.com/virtualgoogleearth.asp

Can anyone provide some pointers if these URL's are proper benchmark for 
this comparison or we should get the data from other repository.

an example of a discrepancey: 
when we get the data for Canada
Mapoint coordinates are 62.83303436 & -95.91401742
Web tool values are       56.1304	& -106.3468

I have a longer list and let me know if you are interested to get them. Any 
help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Rakesh
