jfitzpat Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 FWIW The converter on www.jeeep.com not only goes between NAD27 and NAD83 (WGS84), it also displays the results in different formats. -jjf Quote Link to comment
+Ranz Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 I don't remember the link but I downloaded it and it works very well. Converts Deg.Min.Sec, Deg.Min.mmmxxxxx, and Decimal Degrees. If you can't find it and are interested, I can post a link to my web area. Quote Link to comment
+exConn Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 Just throwing in another option... You can request Chris's Latitude/Longitude Conversion Spreadsheet to use offline. See this thread for details... -exConn What is Project Virginia? Quote Link to comment

+park2 Posted March 8, 2002 Share Posted March 8, 2002 Personally, if I am staying in the same datum and not going to UTM, I just multiply/divide by 60 once or twice on my PalmPilot. Quote Link to comment
John E Cache Posted March 8, 2002 Share Posted March 8, 2002 A lot of calculators have a dms <-> d.xxx convert key. Look for a key labeled o'" Quote Link to comment
