How to transform the ddd°mm.mmm position format to ddd°.mmmmm?


Question:

How can I transform a position fix from ddd°mm.mmm to ddd°.mmmmm?

Answer:

  • ddd°mm.mmm : ddd degree, mmm.mmm minutes
  • ddd°.mmmmm : ddd degree, and mmmmm fractions of degree

If you need to transform the number A°B.C, you have to calculate A+B.C*5/3.

Example: 123°57.318 is equal to 123°.9553
