HDC 1 Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Hi, i want to create a new waypoint but i have porblems with the LAT/LON format. What format is this? For example i want to create a new waypoint at this coordinates: 41° 51′ 36″ N, 87° 36′ 31″ W. What coordinates do i have to insert in the LAT/LON field for this example? I have read the step by step guide but i can't find what format this is. I have looked at google for a calculator and get this result for the coordinates above: N41 51 36 W87 36 31 format changed: 41.860, 87.60861111 Dez.-Grad *1 N41 51.600 E087 36.517 Grad Min. *2 N41° 51' 36" E087° 36' 31" Grad Mn Sk *3 45T E 550514 N 4634411 UTM *4 45TWG E 50514 N 34411 MGRS *5 X 9752546 Y 5140031 Merc. WGS *6 X 9741633 Y 5134280 Merc. Falk *7 X Q90MC Y PZ8ZZ NAC *8 NN31TU36AJ QTH *9 tzqq1s6s GeoHash *10 I tried it with: 4186.0N/87608.6W 4186.0N/87608.6E 4186.0N/-8760.8W 4186.0N/-8760.8E 4186.0N/08760.8W but always it comes bad format.

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4161 Posted November 4, 2018 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted November 4, 2018 You are using the wrong numbers: Please login to display this image. So in your case you can enter: - 41° 51′ 36″ N / 87° 36′ 31″ W => 4151.4N/8736.3W or after converting Degrees in Decimal - 41° 51′ 36″ N (= 41.86) / 87° 36′ 31″ W (= -87.61) => 41.9N/87.6 You took the dec numbers and entered it like degree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
