Background - Newbie w/ a eTrex lengend using EasyGPS and CacheMate (for my Palm).
When I look at coordinates on www.geocaching.com, the units are in the form N 37° 06.964 W 113° 36.168. I think this is referred to as MinuteDecimal (MinDec). When I look at the coordinates in the CacheMate file converter, they are in the form of N 37.11665 W 113.59998. Is this referred to as DegDec (Degree Decimal)? On the GPS itself, they are in MinDec.
Is there a simple algorithm to go between the two units. Thanks.
