To convert Latitude/Longitude coordinates from Degrees-Minutes-Seconds(DMS) to Decimal Degrees (DD) use one of the following: Use an on-line Degrees to Decimal Degrees Converter; use your browser's back button to return to this page

Decimal Degrees (DD) are an alternate way to express the more familiar Degrees-minutes-seconds (DMS) measurements of latitude and longitude. We require all latitude and longitude measurements in DD because our computer programs cannot work with the DMS format.

To do these calculations, you can download the degree format conversion calculator as an MS Excel spreadsheet. (Note that it has macros which you need to enable - if your browser asks you)

Take the integer (whole number) - positive is North and East, negative is South and West - and set it aside. The remaining decimals would be multiplied times sixty to get minutes. Example: the Sears Tower in Chicago is located at 41.878928? -87.636415?. For the latitude... N41? 52.736 Now try the math on your own: Longitude -87.636415? will convert to W087? 38.185. To reverse the process, take the minutes portion and divide by 60, then tag it on to the degrees. West" is negative: -87.

In the integer part, you devide by 2. In the decimal part, you multiply by 2 Decimal Binary 2 10 4 100 8 1000 16 10000 0.5 0.1 0.25 0.01 0.125 0.001 0.0625 0.0001 ... You should get my point now.

First, be sure you understand exactly what numbers mean in the old familiar decimal system. If I write 3409, what it really means is 3*1000 + 4*100 + 0*10 + 9*1... I can also write it as: 3*103 + 4*102 + 0101 + 9*100 (remember that 100 = 1). Now there's nothing magic about 10 - it was chosen because we happen to have 10 fingers. If humans had 7 fingers, you can bet that we'd be writing numbers like this: 3204 = 3*73 + 2*72 + 071 + 4*70.

KH or GH readings in parts per million (ppm) can be converted to degrees by dividing them by 17.86. For example, if your KH tests as 120 ppm, this means your KH is 6.7 degrees.

This is a math question, not a Java question. However, the Math.cos(), Math.sin() only accept double in radians. If you enter degrees, it will compile/run OK, but give you wrong results.Just remember 2 PIs is equivalent to 360 degrees. Simple double degrees = 60;

For converting a hexadecimal number to a decimal number, you use the parseInt function with a radix of 16, like this: Code: var nDecimal=parseInt(sHexadecimal, 16); where sHexadecimal is a string containing a hexadecimal number. For converting a decimal number to hexadecimal, you use the toString method with an argument of the radix you want to convert to, in this case 16, like this: Code: var sHexadecimal=nDecimal.

How do you convert numbers to base 16 numbers? Please use the following numbers in an example: 411213 and 38015. Here's one way to think about other bases. If you were given 3 hundred-dollar bills and 4 ten-dollar bills and 2 one-dollar bills you would have 342 dollars. We can just "glue" the 3 and the 4 and the 2 together because our decimal number system is based on tens.

The current use of Global Positioning Systems and Geographic Information System software has increased awareness of the importance of recording datums and ellipsoids. However, this information was not commonly recorded in the past and it wasn't recorded for the NURE HSSR program. We do know that during the time these samples were collected (late 1970's and very early 1980's), there were very few choices of datums or ellipsoids in use within the United States.

The METAR/TAF information page has two conversion tables for your use in this. However, for those who like formulas, the simple conversion formulas from Celsius (C) to Fahrenheit (F), and for the conversion of F back to C are as follows: F = 1.8xC + 32 C = (F - 32)/1.8 Here are some sample Celsius temperatures and their Fahrenheit equivalents to help you give a better feel for the Celsius scale: Celsius Fahrenheit -50.0 -58.0 -40.0 -40.0 (Our favorite anomaly) -30.0 -22.0 -25.0 -13.0 -20.0 - 4.

Answer: Our scanners use either decimal format or decimal and AFS format. You can convert decimal EDACS IDs to the AFS (Agency-Fleet-Subfleet) format as follows: Answer: With an EDACS system, the frequencies have to be in a particular order. Also, unless indicated otherwise in the scanner's manual, you should not mix other frequencies in the same bank as the EDACS frequencies. We do not have information on the correct order for specific EDACS frequencies.

To have a US item run under UK current you need to buy a transformer, a product that you plug into the wall and has a US-style jack at the other end. The transformer will "step down" in voltage from 240 to 120v. From there you may want to plug in a US-style power strip and provide current for sev eral products. Next you need to consider how many watts your transformer is providing (all transformers should clearly indicate this).

The conversion formula is ?F = ?C x 9/5 + 32 or, in reverse, ?C = (?F - 32) X 5/9 . The formula also appears on this page. The "knot" is the unit used to describe the speed of the wind in Canadian marine forecasts. It is a measure of the wind speed in nautical miles per hour. One nautical mile is equal in distance to 1.852 kilometres.

There are two easy ways to see the latest minutes available within this system. The system automatically generates two separate lists for each year (volume). The first and smaller list shows details of all committee meetings. Every minute has a top menu item called committee that lists all the committees (meetings) for that year (volume). The second and much large list shows the details of every minute that has been indexed for that particular year.
