Re: (ATMoB:Discuss) coordinates
MapQuest's web site can give you a map of the area surround a given
latitude and longitude. I realize that this is more or less the
inverse of what you are looking for, but if you have know an
approximate latitude and longitude you can get to a map of the
general area, but slight off, and you can refine the latitude and
longitude numbers until you get the map centered on what you want.
- Go to http://www.mapquest dot com
- Click on the "MAPS" link.
- Click on the "Latitude / Longitude" link.
- Enter the latitude and longitude either as degrees, minutes, and
seconds, or as decimal degrees. Remember that north latitude is
positive and west longitude is negative.
