Latitude/Longitude Format Converter
Have you ever suffered the frustration of having to manually convert a latitude/longitude between degrees-minutes-seconds and decimal degrees, or degrees with decimal minutes?
Different GPS receivers, maps, web sites, and documents will express lat/lon in one of the three formats above, and while it ain’t rocket science, it can be tedious to manually convert from one format to another, given that you have to go to and from base-60 (minutes, seconds) to base-100 (decimals).
The little spreadsheet below was created to simplify that process. It’ll let you enter a latitude or longitude in any of three formats, and return the latitude or longitude in any of the other formats.
