Which possible solution? (a) 32-bit floating point (b) 32-bit integer
(c) packed decimal

More compact than what? If your coordinates are all 8-digit decimal
numbers, then each of the above possible solutions will take 32 bits
per number. Which you could use depends on the (unstated) range and
precision of your coordinates. Also, you'll maybe notice that my
comment about using a dictionary for possible solution (c) was a
possible SPEED enhancement, not a compression enhancement.
