The data relating to your location must be entered as a decimal value, correct to one decimal
place. As the co- ordinates are often stated in degrees, minutes and seconds, these must be
converted to decimal values as follows:
The degree value is not affected by the conversion. The minutes are divided by 60, and
rounded to one decimal place. The result of this division is added to the degree value.
The seconds are not taken into consideration, as they do not affect the first decimal place.
