coordinates

I have an quite big CSv File I want to have in Google Maps or just on a map. These are just coordinates but I have 600.000 of them.. Do you have any Idea how I can do this? I've added an screenshot from XTabulator below: The easiest way to do this is generate a KML file (see http://code.google.com/apis/kml/articles/csvtokml.html for a possible solution). You can then open that up in Google Maps by storing it online and linking to it from Google Maps as described at http://code.google.com/apis/kml/documentation/whatiskml.html EDIT: http://www.gpsbabel.org/ may let you do it without coding. We

Take a look at the map coordinates on this page . This is linked in from Wikipedia and the coordinates are passed the query string. I'm not sure of the actual terms for this but How do I convert the coordinates? They look like this: 37° 14′ 6″ N, 115° 48′ 40″ W I would like them to look like this: 37.235, -115.811111 , which is a format readable by Google maps, as seen in this example . How do I do this in PHP, and what are the two different types of coordinates called? The original format is in hours, minutes, seconds format. To convert to decimal, do: D = H + M/60 + s/3600 So in your example

I have a problem which draws my back in some project for some time now. Im basically looking to trap a polygon using x,y points drawn by some script ive written. lat1,lon1 are the center gps cords of the polygon and im looking for its surrounding polygon. here is a part of my code in python: def getcords(lat1,lon1,dr,bearing): lat2=asin(sin(lat1)*cos(dr)+cos(lat1)*sin(dr)*cos(bearing)) lon2=lon1+atan2(sin(bearing)*sin(dr)*cos(lat1),cos(dr)-sin(lat1)*sin(lat2)) return [lat2,lon2] my input goes like this: lat1,lon1 - are given in decimal degrees. -dr is the angular computed by dividing the

I want to create a large database of GPS coordinates that can be queried by saying "Return all coordinates that are within 'n' metres of [this coordinate]". I need it to be as efficient as possible so looping through all the coordinates in the database and calculating whether a coordinate is within 'n' metres wouldn't be a desired solution. Is there an easier solution? Thanks I typically do this sort of query using lat/lon. Using spherical geometry, you can put a bounding box around a specific point. For example, say you have a point (X,Y) that you want all coordinates within 1 mile

Explanation/Scenario: I am developing a app that needs to get in real-time(like 3sec's update) the location of all users of mine app, and these users knowing that, too, will see the another users location, in a map, for example: This location, needs to be in real-time, because all of the users have access to the map, they need to know where are the users of the app, in the exact moment, to find them selves. Question: What i need to do to make my application get in real time the location of all of the users in gps coordinates( for later use on the map )? Obs: I am not asking a full application,

I want to validate the latitude and longitude. Right now, I check just so that the value is not empty, but I want a validation to check that it is a valid latidue or longitude. How do I do that? My property looks like this: public string Lat { get { return this._lat; } set { base.ValidationErrors.Remove("Lat"); if (String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(value)) { this.ValidationErrors.Add("Lat", strings.Positions_Lat_Empty); } this._lat = value != null ? value.Trim() : null; } } public string Lng { get { return this._lng; } set { base.ValidationErrors.Remove("Lng"); if (String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(value)) {
