The following calculators will convert Lat / Long coordinates between three commonly used units types.
The three unit types are shown below with an example of how a map point would be expressed. Assume that we start with a coordinate in (Deg Min Sec). This would be expressed as: (DD MM SS) or (39 54 32).
Starting with
Degrees Minutes Seconds - DD MM SS (Example = 39 54 32 W).
We convert to:
Decimal Degrees (Example = 39.909deg) - The minutes and seconds (54 32) are converted to decimal format (.909).
and convert to:
GPS Coordinates (Example = 39deg 54.333min) - The seconds (32) are converted to decimal format (.333).
For the calculators below, negative values of Longitude are not necessary, Colorado, for instance can be expressed as [39deg, -108deg] or [39 N, 108 W]. The calculators assume positive numbers.
