Can someone explain to me how to read off Degrees, minutes and decimal minutes( i believe it is ) on a mp please. I am proficient with British National Grid, Degrees, Minutes and seconds, but most caches seem to be input with DMm.

 

Help!! :laughing:

 

Thanks

The cache page has a conversion option right next to the DD MM.mmm coordinate. You can then read off the coordinates in a variety of formats including DMS.

 

Whether or not you can read off DM.m from a map will depend on the grid that it uses. Most maps I use only use DM.m and not DMS so I do not have that issue.

 

Happy caching
