LATITUDE & LONGITUDE • When you calculate a coordinate you are actually establishing the angle at which your point of reference is located in relation to the zero line. • For this reason the units of measurement are angular and shown in Degrees, Minutes and Seconds.
LATITUDE & LONGITUDE 50 degrees, 20 minutes and 10 seconds = 50˚ 20' 10'' • A circle = 360 degrees • 1 degree = 60 minutes • 1 minute = 60 seconds A Degree is designated by a superscript “o” A Minute is designated by a single prime mark ' A Second is designated by a double prime mark "
