In technical work or in tables, designations of latitude and longitude may be abbreviated in any of
the following ways:
lat. 35°15�30� S long. 45°12�30� E
lat. 35°15�30� S long. 45°12�30� W
lat. 35°15�5� S long. 45°12�5� E
lat. 35°15�5� N long. 45°12�5� E
Note that, in any of these systems, periods may be omitted after lat. and long.; these labels may also
be dropped, since E, W, N, or S identifies the coordinate. The figures are always closed up, and there
is a space before the compass direction.
