Google Maps and Lat Long


Message posted by Brian Liddicoat on November 04, 2010 at 6:14:32 PST:

I love Google Maps, but I don't understand how to use Lat Long. Google Maps uses a decimal version of Lat Long, as in +34.919161 -125.59595.

If I type in 34° 51' 39.86" N and 117° 46' 50.36"W,
I get butkus.

Can a smart person here please tell me how to make the conversion? Joerg? Peter?

Thanks!
