The problem of computing geodetic coordinates demonstrates substantial differences between solutions appropriate for industry and solutions from academia. The paper describes the solution obtained for industrial use, and a view of the problem as a basis for instruction at several levels. It resulted from discussions between the authors, a university and ``abstract" mathematician researcher and an industrial mathematician. J.L.Fern\'andez Mu\~niz (Puebla)
