Tip: paste a full pair here — e.g. 51.5074, -0.1278 or 51° 30′ N, 0° 07′ W

How it works

The converter parses your input flexibly — it accepts plain decimal degrees (51.5074), signed values (-33.8688), hemisphere-suffixed values (51.5074 N), and full DMS notation (51° 30' 26" N). The output is formatted to the selected target format.

Formats supported

  • Decimal degrees (DD) — e.g. 51.507400° N. The format used by most GPS apps, Google Maps, and digital chart plotters.
  • Degrees, minutes, seconds (DMS) — e.g. 51° 30′ 26.640″ N. Traditional nautical chart notation.

Degrees, decimal minutes (DDM) support is planned for a future update.

Input tips

  • Positive latitude = North; negative = South.
  • Positive longitude = East; negative = West.
  • You can use N, S, E, W as a prefix or suffix, e.g. S 33° 52' or 33° 52' S.
  • Latitude range: −90° to 90°. Longitude range: −180° to 180°.
