How To Write Coordinates

Sometimes to help distinguish between latitude and longitude their respective symbols are included.
How to write coordinates. In our example we have moved 2 places right and 1 place up. To formulate coordinates you can use. You write a line of latitude first. For example a location could be found along the latitude line 15 n and the longitude line 30 e. We have shown this with the coordinates 2 1.
A second of latitude is. Write the latitude and longitude coordinates. Use the degree symbol instead of d. The next format would be degrees and decimal minu. The first rule of writing coordinates is.
For example the geographic coordinate expressed in degrees minutes seconds for new york city is. 32 18 23 1 n 122 36 52 5 w. Find a location and figure out where the lines of latitude and longitude connect. For example a coordinate might be written 65 32 15. Check that the first number in your latitude coordinate is between 90.
Then you add a decimal degree comma and decimal degree of longitude. When writing latitude and longitude write latitude first followed by a comma and then longitude. First comes the latitude then the longitude. Such as 37 7 122 2 degrees minutes seconds. How to write coordinates.
We write these numbers in brackets and separate them with a comma to form a coordinate pair. Such as 32 18 385 n 122 36 875 w universal transverse mercator. There are several ways to write latitude and longitude coordinates they can be written in dms which stands for degrees minutes seconds it would look like this. φ phi for latitude and λ lambda for longitude. Overall there are many ways to represent the geographical lines.
