If it has any meaning, I think it might be a more traditional cipher, but I don't have the patience. Coordinates make little narrative sense (the whorl never went much of anywhere, anyways, or if it did, in a nice big Noah's Ark style circle. [Eratosthenes' well is one of my favorite stories].)

That is fun, if nothing else, as an external easter egg (thank you for researching it), but it certainly can't mean anything internally to the story, even in a Jar of Tang situation.
I don't know about that; GW uses addresses/coordinates' subtext elsewhere. However, I think this particular encoding is not right because it has ridiculous precision and insufficient address space to cover 180 degrees nor 24 hours. Moving the decimal to the right helps but leaves us with out of range coordinates; some positions can have both.
