Thank you for confirming it should work, that allowed me to find my error else where. However it has lead to another question, it seems to accept minutes larger than 60, (500 adds on 8 1/3 degrees as would be expected) should this not generate a warning at the very least? thanks Andrew On 30/06/10 13:30, Stacho Mudrak wrote:
This is very strange, so far I have tried it, it works on my computer. Can you send me exact description of an error that it generates when reading such a data? Or a minimaln sample that does not work?
Thanks, S.

sorry I have not been clear enough, yes it works with lat-long
it is when you try it in centreline it does not work
centreline data normal from to tape compass clino 1 2 3.24 -6:50 1:50
thanks

Hello
We have lots of old data that we are trying input to build up our area map. Lots of this data is in degrees and minutes. When dealing with co-ordinates (lat-long) 52:34:23.2 works as degrees:minutes:seconds. I cannot seem to be able to get this format to work for survey data, is there a way to use degrees:minutes, if not could it be added to the things to be implemented, it would save lots of spread sheet work converting it, and make checking back to the original data far easier for future users of the data
thanks
Andrew

It should be possible according Thbook:
lat-long, long-lat ◃ latitude (N positive, S negative) and longitude (E positive, W negative) in given order in degrees (deg[:min[:sec]] allowed), WGS84 datum. By default, not supported on output.
52:34.56461 ?
