GPS UNITS CONVERSION

Post by nmartinez »

Hi Harry,

i have this coordinate:
41º32'53.48''N
8º23'39.45''O

1) How can i convert this coordinates to lap timer? I already set the "Polar Format" to "dºmm'ss.s'', but the last coordinate ".s" only goes from "0" to "9" in lap timer, and i have for ex. 48

2) in lap timer i have:
Latitude: "N" and "S"
Longitude: "E" and "W"

in this case i have Longitude "O", what is this???

Please help me.
Thanks.

Best Regards,
Nuno

1) Simply round it: 41º32'53.48''N -> 41º32'53.5''N and 8º23'39.45''O -> 8º23'39.5''O The accuracy used in your example is sub centimeter and not needed to place POIs.
2) Italien for 'East' is 'Ovest' so exchange the Italian O to an English E

Moved that thread to 'Using LapTimer'.
