I used wiki coordinates for both step and great pyramid and WGC84. The distance is:

Djoser to Khufu pyramid = 14346.761 m = 27402.5 royal cubits

Once again using wiki coordinates for Kafre and step pyramid and WGC84 we get:

Djoser to Kafre pyramid = 14259.367 m = 27235.6 royal cubits

Kafre pyramid limestone casing height(Petrie) = 142.35 m = 271.89 royal cubits

Also Khufu pyramid to Djoser pyramid = 146.466 degrees bearing

146.466 m = 279.752 royal cubits

close to GP height.

I also measures both values using Google Earth. The outcome is:

Djoser to Khufu pyramid = 14349 m
Djoser to Kafre pyramid = 14251 m

>>It would seem that probably these pyramids among other purposes were geodetic survey monuments.<<
Yes they are.

All these measures point to Hellas(Greece) and harmony(HARMONIA, Ionic: ARMONIA):

HELLAS = 8 + 5 + 30 + 30 + 1 + 200 = 274
ARMONIA = 1 + 100 + 40 + 70 + 50 + 10 + 1 = 272
HARMONIA = 8 + 1 + 100 + 40 + 70 + 50 + 10 + 1 = 280
e = 2.71828

I made another calculation using wiki coordinates and Airy(1830) method:

Djoser to Khufu pyramid = 14345.608 m = 27400.28 royal cubits


Did the architects of the pyramids use an Airy 1830 ellipsoid Earth model to plan the pyramids?
