At 0 deg 10' the table value is 253.63 which is the biggest value on the table.
I propose to normalize - meaning scale - the entire table such that this value
becomes 1000.00. All other values would, of course, scale proportionally by
the same factor, namely 1000.00/253.63.
This normalization would increase the table resolution by ~4 in the same space.
Should I?

before I go ahead:the same factor, namely 1000.00/253.63.
It would not affect the function of the table in any other way.

Hanno,
Perhaps two versions of the table to see how they compare for ease of interpolation.

The format otherwise looks very good.
