Background
It's possible to cast GEOMETRY datatypes to strings and back
Improvement
New session/system parameter ST_MAX_DECIMAL_DIGITS allows you to define maximum significant digits used by cast from geometry type to a string (Default 16).
It doesn't have any influence on internal storage of geometry type and on geometry operations.
